Note

The bearings of the wishbone at the front may be tightened only when the vehicle is ready for the road. If these bearings were tightened without any weight on the wheels, incorrect values would be obtained for the wishbone positioning. The shock absorber strut serves also as a rebound stop for the front wheel. Therefore release shock absorber strut mounting only when the vehicle is standing on its wheels or the wishbone is supported. To assemble the upper suspension either place vehicle on the wheels or raise axle half at the wishbone. Renew self-locking bolts and nuts!

In the event of repairs, a radial play of 0.03 mm on inner bearing and of 0.025 mm on outer bearing between bearing inner race and steering knuckle pin is still permitted. If the play is higher, there is the possibility to eliminate that play during assembly by applying ,,Omnifit type 80 red M or H with activator (combination pack part No. 002 989 69 71) or Loctite code No. 640, part No. 002 989 20 7 1.

Tapered roller bearings are no longer usable if: The line of the tapered rollers in the outer bearing shows indentations (caused by peeling on the bearing inner race); Rust has formed on the tapered roller bearings (occurs when water enters the front wheel bearing through a defective radial seal); The outer bearing has turned light brown to blue as a result of an excessive temperature rise. Note: If one tapered roller bearing is defective, always renew the other bearing of the hub concerned. Install wheel bearings of identical make. If used bearings are put back, do not mix up related inner bearing races with roller cage and outer races.

Assembly

On model 201,02/l with 15 wheels the front wheel hubs have wider contact surfaces than the front wheel hubs with 14 wheels. In addition, the brake disk is attached to the front wheel hub by means of a locking screw.

Conversion Principally, a conversion of formerly made vehicles with 14 to 15 steel rims is permissible o n l y following reconstruction to the present series version of the front wheel hubs and the brake disks (contact surface of steel rim in combination with former hubs is too narrow).

When using 15 light-alloy rims, reconstruction is not required. In the Federal Republic of Germany, the usual procedure requires that the new tire size is entered into the vehicle documents by a technical inspection society for motor vehicles.

For checking the steering knuckle, mount between centers on the lathe at both centering holes.

Firstly remove the centering pin (5~) from the steering knuckle (5). Note: New steering knuckles are supplied with the center ing pin. As from approx. September 1985 only stop pins (5b) with plastic flap will be installed.

When repairing accidents, the steering knuckle can be additionally checked for bends via the lower bearing point in direction of camber after checking the kingpin by means of a measuring bolt. In such a case, the steering knuckle is mounted on inner bearing seat of pin (arrows) in a three-jaw chuck.

The ball joints are maintenance-free, i.e. they are greased for life. In a maintenance-free joint, seal protection against penetrating dirt and sand is of decisive importance for the life of the joint. For this reason it is necessary to check the joints carefully from time to time. If dirt passes through a leaking sleeve it will certainly lead to premature joint wear. A rubber sleeve damaged during assembly must be renewed immediately (33-430). Always renew a joint already used with a leaking sleeve.
