FRONT SUSPENSION ASSEMBLY
Revision: 2006 December 2006 FX35/FX45
FRONT SUSPENSION ASSEMBLYPFP:54010
On-Vehicle Inspection and ServiceNES000I3
Make sure the mounting conditions (looseness, back lash) of each component and component conditions
(wear, damage) are normal.
INSPECTION LOWER BALL JOINT END PLAY
1. Set front wheels in a straight-ahead position. Do not depress brake pedal.
2. Place an iron bar or similar tool between transverse link and steering knuckle.
3. Measure axial end play by prying it up and down.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage ball joint boot.
STRUT INSPECTION

Check strut for oil leakage, damage and replace if there are. Refer to FSU-11, "COIL SPRING AND
STRUT" .
Wheel Alignment InspectionNES000I4
DESCRIPTION

Measure wheel alignment under unladen conditions.
NOTE:
Unladen conditions mean that fuel, engine coolant, and lubricant are full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools and
mats are designated positions.
PRELIMINARY CHECK

Check tires for improper air pressure and wear.

Check road wheels for runout.

Check wheel bearing axial end play.

Check ball joint axial end play of compression rod, upper link, and steering knuckle

Check shock absorber operation.

Check each mounting part of axle and suspension for looseness and deformation.

Check each link, rod and member for cracks, deformation and other damage.

Check vehicle posture.
GENERAL INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

A four-wheel thrust alignment should be performed.
–This type of alignment is recommended for any NISSAN/INFINITI vehicle.
–The four-wheel “thrust” process helps ensure that the vehicle is properly aligned and the steering wheel is
centered.
–The alignment rack itself should be capable of accepting any NISSAN/INFINITI vehicle.
–The rack should be checked to ensure that it is level.

Make sure the machine is properly calibrated.
–Your alignment equipment should be regularly calibrated in order to give correct information.
–Check with the manufacturer of your specific equipment for their recommended Service/Calibration
Schedule. Axial end play : 0 mm (0 in)

CAUTION:

Every time the vehicle is lifted up, maintain the complete vehicle curb condition.

Since the vehicle's center of gravity changes when removing main parts on the front side (engine,
transmission, suspension etc.), support a jack up point on the rear side garage jack with a mission
jack or equivalent.

Since the vehicle's center of gravity changes when removing main parts on the rear side (rear axle,
suspension, etc.), support a jack up point on the front side garage jack with a mission jack or
equivalent.

Be careful not to smash or do not do anything that would affect piping parts.
Garage Jack and Safety Stand NAS0006Q
WARNING:

Park the vehicle on a level surface when using the jack. Make sure to avoid damaging pipes,
tubes, etc. under the vehicle.

Never get under the vehicle while it is supported only by the jack. Always use safety stands when
you have to get under the vehicle.

Checking Power Steering Fluid and LinesNLS00070
Check fluid level in reservoir tank with engine off.
Use “HOT” range at fluid temperatures of 50 to 80 °C (122 to 176 °F)
or “COLD” range at fluid temperatures of 0 to 30 °C (32 to 86 °F).
CAUTION:

Do not overfill.

Recommended fluid is Genuine NISSAN PSF or equivalent.
Refer to MA-12, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRI-
CANTS"


Check lines for improper attachment, leaks, cracks, dam-
age, loose connections, chafing and deterioration.

Check rack boots for accumulation of power steering fluid.
Axle and Suspension PartsNLS00071
Check front and rear axle and suspension parts for excessive play,
cracks, wear or other damage.

Shake each wheel to check for excessive play.

Check wheel bearings for smooth operation.

Check axle and suspension nuts and bolts for looseness.

Check strut (shock absorber) for oil leakage or other damage.

Check suspension ball joint for grease leakage and ball joint
dust cover for cracks or other damage.
