Checking the protective covers of the front wheel drives

            0

GOOD ADVICE: Actuator hinges are very durable. However, if the protective covers are damaged, water and dirt enter the hinges, as a result of which they quickly fail. The work of replacing the front wheel drives is quite laborious, and the drives are not cheap. To save a lot of time and money, avoid damaging hinge covers (for example, due to a collision with a wire sticking out of the ground) and replace them immediately at the slightest damage. If water or dust gets into the hinge through a damaged cover, it will fail after several hundred kilometers.


1. Install the car on a viewing ditch or overpass.



2. Examine protective covers of the left internal …



3.... and the left outer hinge.



4. There should be no cracks or tears on the covers. Replace damaged covers.

5. Similarly examine protective covers of hinges of a drive of the right wheel.

6. Check up tightness of a prileganiye of belts of a cover and reliability of fastening of collars. The cover should not turn on the hinge, and the clamps - on the cover. Otherwise, replace the clamps.
