VAZ 2101-2107 – Front suspension

Dear site visitors! We invite you to familiarize yourself with the prices for front suspension repairs for domestic VAZ 2101-2107 cars at the MAXIMOTORS car service center. Car service hours are daily from 9 to 21 hours.

We change silent blocks on a VAZ 2107

In order to gain access to the silent blocks, you need to remove the car's levers. To do this, we jack up the front wheels, you can put some kind of block or spare tire under the beam so that the car does not fall, in addition, this ensures the required lifting height. First of all, we unscrew the transverse stabilizer, for which we will need a 13 mm socket wrench, as well as a pry bar . Often, in order to remove it, you have to make a significant effort. Then we take the ties and tighten them onto the springs; the design of the ties can be different, so we will not dwell on this in detail. After the springs have been removed, you can unscrew the ball springs; some people first unscrew them before pulling the springs, since this way it is easier to knock them out of the steering knuckles, but there are also special devices for this. If it is not there, then you can use a lever while simultaneously tapping the steering knuckle. Under no circumstances should you knock on the fingers of the ball joints. After this, you need to remove the shock absorbers; you can replace them along the way, since suspension parts, as a rule, become unusable almost simultaneously. Well, now we have access directly to the levers. In order to remove the upper arm, you need to unscrew the nut on the central bolt, which is the axis for it. To remove the lower arm, you need to unscrew the two bolts that stick out from the beam. Great difficulties can arise here, since the bolts in the beam often turn, in which case they can be held by inserting a flat-head screwdriver between the head of the bolt and the beam. Another way is to place a spacer between the beam and the axis of rotation of the lever, at the same time unscrew the nuts one by one to ensure uniform removal from the bolt. It is the most effective.
Now let's move on to the second stage. Here we will need a vice, as well as mandrels for pressing the silent blocks into place. To do this, you can use a piece of pipe of a suitable diameter, or a 27mm head. It is worth remembering that the silent blocks should be pressed in not to the very end, but with a gap of 1-2 millimeters.
Now let's talk about the assembly. Not to say that there are a lot of subtleties here, but they are still there. First of all, don’t think that everything will fall into place easily. Almost every part will have to be pressed with a pry bar or tapped with a hammer. If the shock absorbers have not been replaced, then it is necessary to press new bushings into the lower supports.

Many car owners consider themselves very cunning because when removing the levers they remember the number of shims that are installed to adjust the camber. In fact, this is a slightly naive opinion, since it will not be possible to tighten the nuts in the same way. In this case, having the correct wheel geometry will be very deceptive, which can lead to the loss of tires.

Purchase recommendations

Lower control arms for the VAZ 2107 are produced by many different companies. It is better to buy products from trusted companies. Original parts are ideal for VAZ 2107. Good spare parts are also produced by Tolyatti, BZAK, TRACK, FORWARD and Nachalo companies.

We must remember that there are many scammers operating in the auto parts market. To avoid becoming their victim, you must adhere to the following recommendations:

If the cost of the original spare part is greatly underestimated, then there is no need to take it. Most likely, they are selling a fake. Its quality leaves much to be desired. Therefore, you should not save money and buy a fake. Otherwise, you will soon have to look for and buy a replacement lower arm again. It is better to choose an official auto parts store as a place of purchase.
If you order a spare part in an online store, you should not agree to partial or full prepayment. If the seller turns out to be dishonest, then after transferring the money he will not send the goods. It is better to choose cash on delivery as a payment option.

What is a silent block

Front arm bushings made of polyurethane

These parts are typical hinges made of metal and rubber. They are designed to neutralize noise, shocks, and various vibrations that occur when driving on our roads, which are not always of the highest quality. These parts are installed in reaction rods, supports, levers, and shock absorbers.

Rubber and polymer silent blocks that have become unusable should be replaced as quickly as possible. Failure of parts of levers and other suspension components significantly worsens the vehicle’s maneuverability and increases wear on the rubber of the front wheels, resulting in camber and toe problems.

Before replacing silent blocks on a rear-wheel drive VAZ 2107, you need to prepare the following tool:

devices to facilitate the pressing process;
remover for VAZ 2107 silent blocks and control tips;
jack;
a set of open-end and ring wrenches for “22” and “13”;
perfectly sharpened chisel;
plumber's hammer;
mount.

Without these tools, it is very difficult to replace worn parts. High-quality new rubber, or better yet polymer, silent blocks for VAZ will also come in handy. The products “Track” and “SEVI” have proven themselves to be excellent.

Polyurethane or regular?

On sale you can find two types of elements - polyurethane and rubber-based. The question is: which ones are better to use on the VAZ 2107? Rubber ones have many disadvantages:

Even the new ones squeak.
They have a relatively small resource.
Under the influence of an aggressive environment they quickly become unusable.

But they also have a big advantage - a fairly low price. Depending on the “appetites” of the seller, you can purchase a set for 500-700 rubles. But polyurethane ones have higher characteristics. They are practically not exposed to aggressive environments, have a long service life (at least twice as long), but there is one drawback - the price. It is within one and a half thousand. Look at how you are used to using your car.

Which ones should you install on your VAZ 2107? The question is not easy, you need to weigh everything to answer it. And most importantly, evaluate your financial capabilities. You also need to pay attention to your driving style. If it is aggressive, then polyurethane ones will be more suitable for the job. But if you drive quietly and the suspension is not subjected to significant loads, then you can install regular rubber ones. But we need to make a reservation again - it all depends on your capabilities and preferences. Polyurethane ones are many times better than rubber ones on the VAZ 2107 and similar models. And they are free from the main drawback of rubber joints - they do not creak.

When is it necessary to replace suspension arms?

Reasons for replacing the front suspension lower control arms are typically:

impacts of a mechanical nature when involved in a traffic accident or when hitting a curb;
corrosion processes that cause them to fail.

The latter applies only to steel levers, since light alloy levers are not susceptible to moisture.

It is important to understand that the lower suspension arms are designed to last a long time, but in order for them to last their entire life, you need to not only drive carefully, but also provide them with appropriate maintenance. And for this you need to undergo regular diagnostics

Preparing for replacement

But there are certain features in the replacement. The fact is that all silent blocks are installed in the holes of the levers with interference, that is, they fit very tightly and are not easy to remove. For this purpose, special pullers are used to press out and press in the hinges.

Additionally, a ball joint remover may be required.

There are many methods for performing the operation without these pullers, and we will consider one of them using the example of a VAZ-2107 car.

Tools you will need:

Set of spanners and sockets;
Mount;
Heavy hammer or small sledgehammer;
WD-40;
Jack;
Wooden stands;
Soap solution;
Nigrol.

A few words about the selection of silent blocks.

They need to be selected according to the car model. At the same time, the market offers two types of these hinges - some use rubber as a damping spacer, and others use polyurethane.

The latter are more reliable and have a longer service life, but also cost more. Which type to choose is up to the car owner to decide.

The method that will be described below requires the presence of a puller for silent blocks, but it will only be needed to replace the hinges of the upper arm.

At the same time, you don’t have to buy the device; you can make it yourself.

To do this, you will need a long bolt with a nut, two wide washers and two pieces of thick-walled pipe of different diameters.

One size should be larger than the circumference of the silent block (used when pressing out).

The second segment along the inner diameter should correspond to the circumference of the hinge, but so that the pipe wall rests against the metal side of the outer ring (used for pressing).

Lower arm repair

If the lower arm is slightly bent and no other damage is detected, then you can continue to operate the car, you just need to check the wheel alignment. Repair or replacement of this element of the front suspension is carried out in the following cases:

severe damage to the lower arm;
appearance of cracks.

To complete the work you will need the following tools:

set of open-end wrenches;
set of heads;
metal brush;
jack;
puller for pressing out silent blocks;
device for removing ball joints;
mounting blade;
penetrating liquid;
hammer;
vice.

Removing the lever

The need to dismantle the lower arm arises when the specified element fails to replace the axle or silent blocks.

Work order:

Raise the front of the car. To do this, use a jack, but you can also use a lift.
Remove the wheel.
Unscrew the lower shock absorber mount.
Loosen the nuts on the axle.
Release the stabilizer pad mounting.
Lightly load the suspension. To do this, you will need a reliable support, which is placed under the lever and the car is lowered slightly.
Unscrew the nut on the support and press out the pin. This is done using a special puller.
Unload the suspension. This must be done smoothly. Gently pull back the stabilizer to move it through the pin located on the lower arm.
Remove the spring. To do this, it is pryed up and removed from the support cup.
Unscrew the axle mounting bolts. Under them there are washers that are used to adjust the camber angle of the wheels. You need to remember their location, otherwise you will have to make adjustments again.
Remove the lower arm. To do this, use a mounting spatula, which is used to gently press out the axle.

Replacing the ball joint

You can replace the ball joint on the lower arm without removing it. Since we have already removed the lower arm, it will be much easier to change the ball joint on it:

Clean the ball joint mounting nuts. This is done using a metal brush; you can also lubricate the threads with WD-40.
Remove the support. To do this, unscrew the three fastening nuts and remove the indicated element. Carefully inspect the lever to detect possible damage and cracks.
Install a new ball joint and tighten all nuts.

The new ball joint already comes with lubricant, so there is no need to lubricate it additionally. Some supports have an oil nipple in the lower part, through which you can additionally fill it with lubricant over time.

Replacing silent blocks

The sequence of work to replace silent blocks on the removed lower arm:

The lever is securely fixed in a vice.
Using a puller, the old hinges are pressed out.
Inspect the lever for damage.
One silent blocks are inserted. A puller is also used for this.
The axle is inserted into the hole along with the washers.
Press in the second hinge. They do this in the same way as in the previous case.

Experts recommend that after replacing the ball joint and silent blocks, use only new nuts.

Lever Installation

After repairing the lever body, replacing silent blocks or a ball joint, installation of the lower lever is performed in the reverse order:

The axle and the lever are secured using bolts.
The lower edge of the spring is installed in the support cup. After this, they begin to tighten the lower lever. Make sure that the stabilizer does not catch on the bushing.
Insert the threaded part of the ball joint and fix the nut.
Fix the stabilizer pad.
Install the shock absorber and tighten the nut.
Check the tightness of all nuts. They must be clamped securely and firmly.
Install the wheels and remove the car from the jack.

At this point, the replacement of the lower arm is considered complete, and you can continue to operate the car safely and comfortably.

By regularly inspecting the condition of the front suspension on the VAZ 2107, you can notice and eliminate any malfunctions in time. Even a novice car enthusiast can replace the lever, ball joint or silent blocks on his own. Keeping the suspension in good condition ensures not only comfortable, but also safe operation of the vehicle. The use of high-quality parts from trusted manufacturers will significantly increase their service life and repairs will need to be performed much less frequently.

Suspension design features

Cars use different types of suspension structures, so the installation locations and the number of silent blocks are different.

For example, classic VAZ models (2101-2107) are equipped with a double-wishbone front suspension, including upper and lower A-arms.

Below is the front suspension of the VAZ 2107.

Each of them has two hinges, on the side where the lever is attached to the car body. But the upper element is secured with a long bolt, and the lower one is mounted on the lever axis, screwed to the body. On the other side, the levers have ball joints.

But in more modern models, starting from the VAZ-2108 and ending with the VAZ-2115, only one lower lever is used.

Below is the front suspension of the VAZ 2109.

There are 2 silent blocks installed in it - at the place of fastening to the body bracket and at the junction of the lever with the spacer.

Another rubber-metal hinge is used on the other side of the spacer, where it is connected either to the mounting bracket (VAZ 2108-21099, VAZ 2113-2115) or to the cross beam (VAZ 2110-2112).

Since the suspension designs are different, the algorithm for replacing silent blocks is different. But in general, this procedure is quite doable in a garage environment, so it is not necessary to contact the service to replace silent blocks.

How to remove the lower suspension arm of a VAZ 2106

Typically, the need to dismantle the lower suspension arm of the VAZ 2106 arises in the event of severe deformation, mechanical breaks and cracks, as well as due to corrosion damage. In most cases, severe deformations of the lever occur in various emergency situations, when the front of the car bumps into various curbs or holes on the road. The appearance of mechanical breaks and cracks is caused by a violation of the geometric proportions of the car body, when during operation it is pulled in any direction, for example after an accident; as a rule, a crack forms in the weakest place. Corrosive damage occurs over time from prolonged use in an aggressive environment.

To remove the lower suspension arm of a VAZ 2106 you must:

First of all, we jack up the car or drive it onto lifts. After which you can remove the wheel.
Next, we need to disconnect the stabilizer bar mount, which is attached to the lower arm on two studs with two nuts. We unscrew the two nuts, remove the metal bracket and, using a pry bar, move the stabilizer to the side so that it does not interfere with us.
The next step is to get rid of the shock absorber; to do this, unscrew the bolts securing it to the lower arm, then in the engine compartment unscrew the nut securing the rod and, if space allows, lower the shock absorber down and pull it out.
Now we need to compress the spring, for this we can use either a special puller, or we can do it in an easier way. We place stops in the form of wooden blocks under the lower arm and lower the jack, thereby compressing the spring. After the spring is compressed to the maximum possible state, it is necessary to fix the coils of the spring together, for this we simply fasten them with strong steel wire. Now we have the spring in a compressed state and we can raise the jack to its original position, thereby removing the load from the lower suspension arm.
All that remains is to disconnect the lower ball joint. To do this, unscrew the bolt securing the ball joint pin to the rotary hub and disconnect it, using either a special puller or simply sharp tapping of a hammer on the seat.
Dismantling the ball joint is the final stage and after removing it nothing else bothers us. Unscrew the bolts securing the lever and remove it.

After the VAZ 2106 lower suspension arm has been removed, carry out the necessary repairs or replace it with a new one and install it on the car in the reverse order of removal. This completes the repair work.

Silent blocks VAZ 2106

Quite high loads are constantly placed on the silent blocks of car suspensions, especially on roads with poor surfaces. Such conditions significantly reduce the life of these parts, as a result of which they fail and need to be replaced. Since the controllability of the car depends on the condition of the silent blocks, you need to know not only how to identify a fault, but also how to replace these suspension components.

What it is

The silent block is a rubber-metal product, structurally made of two iron bushings with a rubber insert between them. Through these parts, the components of the car's suspension are connected, and thanks to the rubber part, vibrations transmitted from one suspension element to another are dampened.

Silent blocks connect suspension elements and dampen vibrations

Where installed

On the VAZ 2106, silent blocks are pressed into the arms of the front suspension, as well as into the reaction rods of the rear axle, connecting it to the body. The condition of these elements must be periodically monitored, and if they are damaged, repairs must be made in a timely manner.

What are there

On the VAZ “Six” and other Zhiguli models, silent blocks made of rubber were installed from the factory. However, instead of them, you can use polyurethane products, thereby improving the performance of the suspension and its characteristics. Polyurethane hinges have a longer service life compared to rubber ones. The main disadvantage of polyurethane elements is their high price. If a set of silent blocks made of rubber for a VAZ 2106 costs about 450 rubles, then made of polyurethane it will cost 1,500 rubles. Hinges made of modern material not only improve the behavior of the car, but also better absorb shock and vibration, reducing noise.

Silicone silent blocks, despite their higher cost, improve the characteristics and performance of the suspension

What is the resource

The service life of rubber-metal joints directly depends on the quality of the products and the operation of the vehicle. If the car is used mainly on good quality roads, then the silent blocks can last 100 thousand km. If you frequently drive through potholes, of which there are many on our roads, the service life of the part is noticeably reduced and repairs may be required after 40–50 thousand km.

How to check

Problems with the hinges can be judged by the behavior of the car:

controllability deteriorates;
Vibrations appear in the steering wheel and knocks in the front when driving over uneven surfaces.

To make sure that the silent blocks have exhausted their service life and require replacement, they should be checked. First, the parts are visually inspected for damage to the rubber. If it cracks and partially comes out, then the part is no longer able to cope with its tasks.

Hinge wear can be determined by visual inspection

In addition to inspection, you can move the upper and lower arms with a pry bar. If knocking and strong vibrations of the silent blocks are observed, then this behavior indicates a lot of wear on the hinges and the need to replace them.

Do-it-yourself silent block remover

The VAZ 2107 hinge puller can be purchased ready-made or made by yourself. If you have the right equipment and materials, every car enthusiast can make the tool. It is also worth considering that the quality of purchased devices today leaves much to be desired. You can replace the rubber-metal hinge without special tools, but this will require much more time and effort.

Sequencing

To make a homemade puller you will need the following:

a piece of water pipe 3 cm long with an internal diameter of 40 mm and an external diameter of 50 mm;

washer with an outer diameter of at least 50 mm;

M12 bolt 7 cm long with washers;

two pieces of pipe 10 cm long and 40 mm in diameter;

vice;

hammer;

lubricant

The puller manufacturing process consists of several stages.

By striking with a hammer, they ensure that a 40 mm pipe section has an internal diameter of 45 mm, i.e., they try to rivet it. This will allow the lower arm joint to pass freely through the pipe.

In order to drive your car confidently and without accidents, you need to periodically inspect and repair the chassis. Wear of silent blocks affects driving safety, as well as tire wear. To replace damaged hinges, you will need to prepare the necessary tools and perform repairs in accordance with step-by-step instructions.

Repair of the front suspension arm on VAZ 2101 - 2107

The need to replace the lever on a VAZ 2101-2107 arises if it is bent, small cracks appear, deep potholes appear, or silent blocks rotate in the eyes. Experienced motorists do not recommend welding the lever. This is a relatively difficult job.

To repair the lever you will need the following tools:

tension puller for springs;
ball joint removers;
devices for pressing in and pressing out silent blocks (not needed if the lower arm was purchased immediately assembled. This kit includes the lower axle and silent blocks);
ring and open-end wrenches for 13, 17, 19, 22;
hammer;
chisel;
mount.

Key for fixing the rod of the front shock absorbers Replacing the front lower suspension arm of a VAZ 2105

A faulty front suspension arm on a VAZ 2105 may cause a knocking sound when the car starts or slows down. You can replace it yourself.

It is preferable to buy the lever assembly. If you decide to save money, then you will additionally need to buy more spare parts, namely:

two silent blocks for the lower arm (if you decide to change both levers, you will have to buy four silent blocks);
internal washers (in some cases the axle may not be useful).

Factors influencing price

The cost of the lower arm on a VAZ 2107 car may vary. When creating a price list, the following characteristics of the spare part are taken into account:

Mounting type.
Design features.
General state.
Originality.
Quality.

The manufacturer has a big influence on the cost of the spare part. The more famous and reliable it is, the more expensive its parts will be. Imported models are more expensive than domestic ones. In regions with a high level of competition, you can find spare parts at a good discount. Delivery of a lever for a VAZ 2107 entails additional financial expenses.

The price also depends on the popularity of the seller. In large and well-known official stores, the cost of parts is higher than in small, recently opened trading companies.

How to replace silent blocks on a VAZ 2107

Replacing the silent blocks of the front levers on VAZ 2101 - 2107 cars is not an easy task. However, they still need to be changed from time to time, and most car enthusiasts have learned to do this without much difficulty. A special universal puller will help to significantly simplify this work. It is with its help that both the upper and lower silent blocks are replaced.

So, you have come to the conclusion that it is time to replace the silent blocks. You should start by purchasing them. Today there are many domestic and imported products on the auto parts market. They differ from each other in price, quality, and service life. Experts recommend installing polyurethane ones as the most reliable and durable, however, due to the fairly high price, they are not affordable for everyone.

For the replacement process itself, it does not matter at all whether the silent blocks are polyurethane or rubber; they are changed on the VAZ 2107 in exactly the same way. From the tool you will need:

Silent block remover;
Ball joint remover;
Keys for 13, 22, 24;
Hammer;
Chisel;
Mount;
Penetrating lubricant (eg WD-40).

You should start by hanging the front end on a jack and removing the front wheel. Next, we proceed directly to the replacement procedure. For the upper and lower front arms of the VAZ 2107, the order of work is different, so we will consider both options. To simplify the work, it is recommended to pre-treat all threaded connections of the levers with penetrating lubricant.

Signs of malfunction of levers and silent blocks

One of the signs of a malfunction is noise in the suspension when driving, especially on a bad road. Among other things, it occurs when silent blocks (rubber-metal hinges of levers) are severely worn. Also, if the silent blocks are worn out or the VAZ 2107 lever is deformed, it becomes impossible to set the alignment angles of the front wheels. The same problem occurs when the axes of the front arms are deformed.

If the levers are deformed, the car may pull to the side when driving on a flat road. An extremely unpleasant phenomenon - self-excited vibrations of the front wheels - is often a consequence of wear of the silent blocks.

Elimination of any of the listed malfunctions of the levers and silent blocks requires the removal of the suspension arms

The following components are also required:

Silent block remover for removing the upper control arm from the car;
Steering end remover, without which it is impossible to unpress the outer steering ends

Most likely, if you decide that you can replace silent blocks on a VAZ 2107 yourself, then you have the rest of the tools. These should be elements such as:

Jack;
Socket and open-end wrenches 22;
Socket and socket wrenches 13;
Thin, well-sharpened chisel;
Hammer;
Mount.

All of the above has most likely convinced you that silent blocks are a very important component of the car. Only one conclusion follows from this - you should not skimp on buying high-quality branded silent blocks. You can also use polyurethane components, but the cost may leave you a little shocked.

So, after all the tools and parts for replacement are prepared, you should start with a process such as replacing the front silent blocks.

Loosen the wheel bolts and lift the required wheel using a jack. After this, immediately remove it and loosen the nut on the axis of the upper arm using a 24mm wrench. You can immediately unscrew the steering tip nut and unpress it.
At the next stage, unscrew the upper ball joint nut using a 24mm wrench. Using a puller, unpress the support pin from the bipod. If there is no puller, simply unscrew the support from the lever using several 13mm wrenches.
Unscrew the upper arm eye nut and remove it. It is noteworthy that replacing silent blocks involves unscrewing the vertical bolt securing the bumper.
The next step is to drag the lever to the workbench and clamp it in a vice. Now you should press out the silent blocks with a previously purchased device. Next comes the installation of the front arm silent blocks. Next, install the lever in place, having previously processed the axis of the upper lever. For this you can use nigrol, lithol, motor oil. It is not recommended to tighten the axle nut completely. Tightening is carried out with the vehicle completely lowered.
Secure the support, put on and secure the wheel, and lower the car from the jack.

Next, prepare a set of silent blocks to carry out such a process as replacing the silent blocks of the rear levers. First of all, you should remove the silent blocks of the rear control arms from the VAZ 2107.

Remove the wheel from the car;
Unscrew the lever axle nuts on both sides using a 22mm wrench and remove the thrust washers.
Screw the complete puller bolt onto the lower arm axle. Tighten the nut while holding the bolt from turning. The puller glass, at the same time, presses on the lower lever, pressing it from the silent block.
The next step is to remove the silent block from the lower arm.
On the opposite side of the rear lever axis, the silent block is pressed out in the same way.

Next, the rear silent blocks are directly replaced:

The new silent block must be centered in the hole of the lower arm;
To prevent the lower arm of the silent block from moving relative to the axle during pressing, a thrust washer should be placed on the axle on the opposite side and the old self-locking nut should be screwed in.
Install the puller onto the lower arm axle and tighten the nut. The puller glass should press on the silent block flange. If you didn’t know how to press in a silent block, then this is how it’s done. It is worth noting that when pressing in, a glass of smaller diameter must be installed on the silent block remover than when pressing out.
Release the puller by unscrewing the screw. Next, install the thrust washer on the axle and tighten the new nut without tightening it.
In the same way, press in the silent block on the opposite side of the lower arm and screw in a new nut, installing a washer.
Finally tighten the nuts on the lower control arm after installing the vehicle on the wheels.

In general, this process is not particularly simple, but if you follow the step-by-step instructions, it will be easy to do, just like repairing shock absorbers yourself. The subframe silent blocks are also replaced in a similar manner. Don't forget to reinstall the tie rod ends and then tighten them. The next step is to tighten the lower and upper arm nuts after the machine is completely lowered to the ground.

Difficulties during work

A few words about possible difficulties. They consist in the fact that the inner race of the silent block can stick to the axle or bolt.

And if there are fewer problems with the lower arm, since the impact forces that we create with a hammer, when pressed out, allow the hinge to be torn out of place, then with the upper arm everything is more complicated.

One way out of this situation is to cut the lever. Using a grinder, we cut off the lever so that only the eyes with silent blocks remain at the place where it is attached to the body.

The lever is then removed from the car. Next, using the same grinder, we cut the fastening bolt at the junction of the silent blocks with the car body. That is, parts with hinges are cut off.
