Replacing front shock absorbers on a VAZ “Classic”

Structurally, the front suspension of VAZ cars belonging to the “Classic” (VAZ-2101-2107) is the same, the sequence of work on replacing shock absorbers for these cars is identical, so let’s consider it using the example of the VAZ-2107.

The replacement work is not that complicated, so you can do it yourself. At the same time, you don’t need so many tools:

  • Special key for holding the shock absorber rod;
  • Open-end and socket wrenches 17;
  • Open-end or socket wrench 13;
  • WD-40.

Naturally, before starting work you need to stock up on new front suspension shock absorbers. It is better to drive the car into a pit or overpass.

First, the upper shock absorber mount becomes loose. To do this, you need to open the hood and find technological holes in the wings that provide access to the shock absorber rod mounting nut.

Before loosening, you need to wipe the nut from dust and treat it with WD-40.

To unscrew the nut, you will need to hold the shock absorber rod, for which you will need a special wrench with a small slot for its upper edges.

In the absence of such a wrench, you can use a regular open-end wrench size 6.

But there is a small nuance in this - over time, the fit of the nut becomes so tight that in order to hold the rod, it may be necessary to extend the arm of the wrench with a piece of pipe that holds the rod.

And since the open-end wrench is quite small, a significant force can simply break it. Therefore, it is better to use a special key, which will be more difficult to break.

So, while holding the rod, use a 17mm wrench to unscrew the nut of the upper shock absorber mounting as shown above.

After this, the spring washer installed under the nut is removed, as well as the pillow washer and the upper pillow itself.

Next you need to move under the car. The shock absorber at the bottom is attached to the lower arm using a bracket.

To disconnect it from the lever, you need to unscrew the two bolts securing the bracket. To do this, you will need a 13mm wrench; to make work easier, it is better to treat the joint with WD-40.

After unscrewing these bolts, you can pull the shock absorber down along with the bracket. Then the bracket is disconnected from the removed shock absorber.

To do this, you need to use two 17mm wrenches, an open-end and a socket.

Don't forget to remove the bottom cushion.

Before installing a new shock absorber, a bracket is attached to it, using new rubber elements - silent blocks.

First you need to secure the shock absorber to the top. To do this, the rod is completely pulled out, a new lower cushion must be put on it, after which it is inserted into the upper hole.

At the top, to prevent the rod from falling out of the hole, it must be secured with a nut, not forgetting to first install the top cushion, its washer and spring washer. In this case, there is no need to tighten the nut; the main thing is to prevent the stem from falling out.

Then you need to screw the shock absorber bracket to the lower arm, the bolts should be tightened completely.

Then the upper nut is tightened, which requires holding the rod back with a wrench.

The front shock absorber is replaced in the same way on the other side.

Important point:

If the work was carried out on a lift or the car was jacked up for ease of work, the fastening bolts must be tightened with the car lowered so that the suspension is under the load of the weight of the car.

to do all the work efficiently.
