Fig. 5."1/1
The oxle shoft moy Inove out of the holf-oxle
only to such on extent thot the reor edge of the
beoring thrust ring is flush
with the holf-oxle
socket. Otherrwise it is opt to
foll out of the
epicyclic geor
ond its refitting would require
the removol
of the holf-oxle from
the georbox
housing. 4. To fit o new boll beoring proceed
occording
to Chopte'r 5.2.
Pull out ogoin
the shoft slightly
until the thrust ring con be seen, fit the beoring

broke mechonism
odhering to the in-
structions of the obove-mentioned chopter,
lo'
cote the beoring
shim 0.3 mm thick, ond com'
plete the ossembly.
Note: The 3 mm shim should
be used only
when replocing the wheel hub or when elimirr-
oting on oscertoined shoft ploy,
thot is
to soy
if the shoft moves oxiolly ond
knocks. However,
it is recommended never
to use more shims
thon three.
5. A domoged seoling
ring con be removed
with o hook or o needle, ond o new one driven
or pressed-on.
The lotter olternotive should be
preferred with regord to the visuol checking of
the pressing-on operotion. The
tightening fin

tunned in-
side the holf-oxle.
When driving home the seol
ring, slip the
MP 5-114 pilot toper (see
Fig.5.213) on the
shoft,
smeor it with oil, ond move the seoling
ring
olong it to drive it finolly into the holf-oxle
using tlre MP 5-116 drift os shown in Fig-
5-212.
For pressing-on
the seoling ring, use the MP
5-112 iig (see
Fig. 5.214)
ond the, sleeve
with
toper os per
Fig.5.-1l4. Pull the shoft
slightly out
of'the holf-oxle, slip
on it the oiled toper os
shown in the illustrotion, then the
seoling ring
ond finolly the sleeve. Fosten the MP 5-112

lorger ond one smoller, ond the forked plote),
screw down the
iig on the threod
of the shoft,
ond use
nuts to ottoch it
to the holf-oxle socketf
longe. The
iig of
the lotest design permits
its
simple fostening by engogement with
the holf-
oxle flonge (fit
the

rotote
it to lock it
in position).
Instoll the lorger liner between the boll
beor-
irrg ond the
iig heod, ond
press
the boll

on the shoft by turning the iig wrench.
3. Reploce the lorger liner with the smoller
one (rest it ogoinst the
iig bolt heod), ond turn
the wrench in the opposite direction to press
the beoring into the holf-oxle socket.
Fitting Broke Mechonism ond Wheel Hub
4. Instoll the broke bocking plote
complete
with the broke
mechonism on the holf-oxle
socket, slip on the "O"
seoling ring ond the
cop with the seoling ring (with
the tightening
f in focing toword the holf-oxle), ond fosten
oll
the porrts
with bolts, spring woshers, ond
nuts.
The seoling ring should be driven or pressed
into the cop so thot the tightening lip foces the
beoring ond
iust so thot there
remoins
o gop
of
1 to 2 mm between the pocking
ond the cop

5. lnsert the key in
the shoftwith its bevelled
end into the runout of the keywoy, smeor
the
hub neck with oil so
thot it does not
drog in
the seoling ring, ond fit the hub with the broke
drum in position.
Moke sure thot the key did
not move further olong the shoft (its
lifted end
in the keywoy would couse the hub to burst)
ond tighten
lightly the nut. Since o high
torque
is required
for finol tightening of the nut, put
off the tightening ond locking of the nut till
ofter instollotion in the cor. Then
tighten the
nut with full torque (see
Chopter 1.8),
top on
the hub to relieve
the possive
stress of the
toper, retighten to the specified torque, ond
lock the nut with o cotter pin.
Fitting Rodius Arms
6. Instoll
the spocer into the rodius
orm, fit
the knurled
woshers (with
the knurling toword
the orm)
to either side of the ellipticol holes of
the rodius
orm, ond fosten them with bolts ond
nuts not
forgetting the spring woshers. Do not
tighten the connection fully. Threod
the bolts
through the bolt holes so thot their nuts foce
into the cor ofter fitting the rodius orm to the
holf-oxle.
Fit the rodius
arm on the protruding
holf-oxle
pin ond threod
the bolt through the hole
of the
secrt. Slip
spocing tubes on the bolt ond pin
together with sheet shims with rubber liners
ond fosten
lightly (without tightening)
the
rodius orm to the holf-oxle using nuts
ond lock
woshers. Tighten
fully the connection

The most importont points
from the point
of
view of driving ore the
toe-in ond the comber
ongle, the odiustment of which is permitted
by
the oxle design.
Adiust first the comber
ond then the toe-in
since o chonged comber
offects the toe-in.
We refroin from describing in detoil ony
meosuring method in view
of the lorge number
of existing gouges.
Insteod,
we odvise you
to refer to
the procedures recommended
by the
monufocturers of the gouges.
The check lood con be formed by blocking the
wishbones with bors occording to
Fig. 6.1/5.
Press down the cor with the hond, insert
the
bors under the wishbones so
thot they
beor
ogoinst the oxle brocket, ond releose the cor
to
let the bors be clomped. lf
clomping of the
bors
does not toke ploce
(which con hoppen on on
older cor with weokened springs),
consider the
condition os if the bors were
clomped, i. e',
corresponding to the position of the
front oxle
ot check looding.
The words "ot
full lood" describe o vehicle
looded so thot the distonce of the rubber deod
stop from the bottom of the
lower wishbone
stop is 20 mm (see olso porogroph
18) ond the
comber ongle of the reor wheels is 1". Meosure
these volues on oll wheels (not
only one front
ond one reor wheel) ond distribute the
lood os
necessory.
Toe-in To odiust the toe-in, screw
the right-hond ond
left-hond steering rods
symmetricolly (o
chonge
up to 1 mm con be effected by
one rod) ot
check lood so thot the distonce between the
wheel rims (or
ocross them) behind the oxle
(A+o) is lorger by the toe-in volue (o)
thon the
distonce between the rims
in front of the oxle
(A). To verify steering symmetry (correct screw-
ing of steering rods during
toe-in odiusting),
check the wheel lock position ot the
20" lock
ongle of the neorside wheel -
for the respective
volues refer to Chopter 1.7.
Slocken the steering rod
nuts ond rotote the
steering rods using on
olligotor wrench (Fig.
6.1/6). In oddition to the correct inflotion
pressure
of the tyres, poy
ottention to
severol essentiol
points when checking the wheel
olignment:
o) Ploce thewheel in the stroight oheod trovel'
ling direction;
b) The
steering rod ond the trock rod
must
not
be stressed. The stress con be eliminoted by
letting the cor swing
up ond down in its
suspension under the pressure of
your
honds
(olternotely press down ond releose
the
wings)
c) Prepore the oxle os
shown in Fig.6.1/5;
d) lf
o speciol gouge with
o scole for wheel
lock ongle setting is ovoiloble, odiust
the cor'
rect length of steering rods in
occordonce with
the position
of wheels in
check lock positions.
You will find the respective volues
in Chopter
1.7 "Steering".
Set the lock ongle

7.8 STEERING WHEEL SHAFT AND SHAFT
BEARING
The steering wheel (column) shoft is built
up
of two ports
with the beoring in the uPPer port.
Usuolly, it is not necessory to disconnect the
two ports
of the shoft or to remove the beoring
ond steering lock. lt
