Some recommendations

  1. Using ties, the spring must be tightened evenly, turning the tetrahedron of the device alternately on one side or the other.
  2. You cannot tighten the spring too much; as soon as it begins to rotate freely between the supports, the tightening should be stopped.
  3. In no case should you use wire instead of zip ties; if the homemade device fails and bursts, injury cannot be avoided.
  4. If you are not confident in your abilities, it is better not to tempt fate; you should entrust the work to professionals.

Steering

Even for the most experienced service engineers of numerous car repair shops, finding the cause of third-party knocks is a serious problem. They probably immediately advise changing the shock absorber strut. Here it is, brand new, sitting on the car, and the strange knocking noise in the front suspension on small bumps has not gone away.

When diagnosing the front suspension, experienced car enthusiasts begin checking with a management suite of accounting programs.

Often the control rack can knock, and the sound can simply be confused with the purpose of a shock absorber strut knocking. If it is heard on a small gravel road, then this is definitely a fault with the control rack. At the same time, sounds will only be heard on the positive side. Apart from knocking, of course you can feel vibrations on the control wheel.

Among the main factors that cause a small knock in the front suspension on small bumps, there is a large gap between the control rack and pinion. This is the result of wear and tear. To make a clear diagnosis, it is recommended to pull the control rods up and down.

At the same time, closely monitor the movement of the rod. If she doesn't move, then she's in a good period. On the contrary, the rod will dangle, then, most likely, there is wear on the bushings.

If the rack turns, then a clear diagnosis is a large gap in the engagement. But this problem can be easily removed if this very rail is tightened. Also, when pulling the control rod, it should be noted that the bushings securing the control rods to the control rack, broken in a different way, are very worn.

Another probable cause of knocking is the control joint. To test this guess, it will be quite difficult to control it with two hands. A friend's help will come in handy.

The assistant must quickly and sharply turn the steering wheel, and the car enthusiast. grasp the hinge in such a way as to hold the hinge itself, its body and the finger. If there is wear, then of course you can feel the free movement.

How do you know when it's time to think about replacing your front shock absorbers?

The photo shows leaks in the shock absorber strut on the first generation Renault Logan

To find out whether the front struts need to be replaced, you don’t need to be an expert in this matter; the behavior of the car will speak for itself. The suspension of the Renault Logan car is designed in such a way that, first of all, there will be a feeling of vibration in the body when driving even on small uneven road surfaces, and this effect will be especially pronounced when there are changes in speed. Knocks also appear when driving over road irregularities (potholes, bumps, speed bumps).

You can carry out your own diagnostics by visually checking the condition of the struts for leaks, and also when each side is alternately rocked, the car will randomly “dangle”, reminiscent of the movement of a boat on the waves.

We inform you in advance that replacement of the front struts is carried out only in pairs, therefore, all spare parts and accessories are purchased for both the left and right sides. This is done so that after all the work has been carried out, it is ideal to carry out the wheel alignment operation.
