Basic geometric dimensions of the VAZ 2112 and body features

To independently solve the problem of restoring parts of a VAZ 2112 car, you need to have the geometric dimensions of its body. In professional workshops, these parameters must be taken into account, and they are individual for each machine model. Violation of body geometry must be eliminated, since it significantly reduces the safety of driving such a car. From this article you can learn important information about the indicators on which high-quality repair of the VAZ 2112 body depends.

A significant part of the repair work on cars, especially those received after road accidents, falls on body repairs. In most cases, repairs require checking the geometry of the attachment points of components and assemblies of the vehicle chassis. The main reference dimensions for checking are shown in Fig. 8–4.

Damage to car body can be very different. Therefore, the repair rules in each individual case must be different, most suitable for these damages, and it is necessary to make maximum use of the possibilities of straightening damaged panels. If possible, it is necessary to avoid thermal effects on the metal so as not to disrupt the factory welding and anti-corrosion protection of the body. Remove the front body panels only in extreme cases, to determine the location of damage, straighten or align the body.

In cases of significant body damage, it is recommended to remove all interior trim to facilitate measurement, inspection and installation of hydraulic and screw jacks to correct distortion and damage to the body.

Protrusion of the front surfaces and removable parts relative to adjacent panels is eliminated by fitting and adjusting them.

Repair of deformed surfaces of parts

Repair of damaged body parts is carried out by drawing, straightening, straightening with metal shrinkage, cutting out areas that cannot be repaired, making repair inserts from rejected body parts or sheet metal and giving them the shape of the part being restored.

Deformed areas of panels are straightened, as a rule, manually using special tools (metal, plastic, wooden hammers and various mandrels) and devices.

Straightening with heating is used for upsetting (pulling) highly stretched surfaces of panels. To prevent sudden swelling and deterioration of mechanical properties, the panels are heated to 600–650 C (cherry-red color). The diameter of the heated spot should be no more than 20–30 mm.

Tighten the surfaces as follows:

– using a carbon electrode of a semi-automatic welding machine or a gas torch, heat the metal from the periphery to the center of the defective area and, with blows of a wooden mallet and hammer, knock down the heated areas using a flat support or an anvil;

– repeat the heating and settling operations until the required panel surface is obtained.

Unevenness in panels can be smoothed out using polyester putties, thermoplastics, cold-curing epoxy mastics and solder.

Polyester putties such as “Chempropol-P” or “PE-0085” form reliable connections with panels that have been stripped to metal. They are two-component materials: an unsaturated polyester resin and a hardener, which is a catalyst for the rapid hardening of the mixture. The temperature in the workroom should not be lower than 18 C. The prepared polyester putty must be used in no more than 10 minutes. It completely hardens 60 minutes after application. The thickness of the putty layer should not exceed 2 mm.

How to make a screed:

1. We heat the metal from the edge to the center of the damaged part using a gas stove or a semi-automatic welding machine with a carbon electrode. When the area heats up, we begin to bring it down with a wooden hammer. When doing this, use a flat stand.
2. We repeat this operation several times until the required surface is obtained.
3. You may not line up without flaws right away, but don't despair. These defects can be hidden using putty, thermoplastic or epoxy putty.

Body geometry dimensions of VAZ 2110 and 2112

VAZ 2110 cars that leave the factory assembly line have clearly verified body dimensions. However, few people pay attention to them when buying. As a rule, a driver begins to become interested in the dimensions of the body of his car in the following cases:

With proper body repair, geometric dimensions can only be checked by taking measurements

1. There are plans to buy a car of this brand second-hand, but the buyer wants to make sure that the vehicle has not been in an accident before. Body geometry will help answer this question.
2. The driver himself got into an accident. This could be a collision with another vehicle or a tree, curb, wall, etc. Body repair materials will be needed. In addition, the driver will need to select tools (for example, find out the dimensions of the slipway for body repair).

Use of thermoplastic.

What does thermoplastic look like? It looks like powder. It begins to have the desired properties at 155-165 C. Before applying thermoplastic to the surface, it is necessary to clean the area of ​​old paint, rust and other debris. Thermoplastic adheres better to rougher surfaces.

Next, we heat the part of the metal panel that we will level to a temperature of 170-190 C. We roll out the applied thermoplastic (powder) with a metal roller. Apply the next layer, roll it up and so on until all irregularities are eliminated.

Length

The geometry of the VAZ 2110 body is described in the operating instructions. The main parameters for checking body geometry are as follows:

1. There should be 4.265 meters between the extreme points of the front bumper and the rear bumper.
2. The distance between the center of the front wheel and the center of the corresponding rear wheel is 2.492 meters.
3. The distance from the center of the front wheel to the end point of the front bumper is 0.829 meters.
4. The distance from the center of the rear wheel to the end point of the rear bumper should be 0.944 meters.

The height of the car is always stationary - 1420 mm

You should try to avoid welding and other work that involves thermal heating of the metal.

Doors

It is also recommended to disassemble them and replace them with an assistant. If electrical equipment is attached to them, then the wires must be removed without fail. It should also be remembered that in case of replacement, it is recommended to transfer all removable parts from the old door to the new one.

This is how the doors on a VAZ 2110 are disassembled:

• The 2 bolts connecting the door to the A-pillar are disconnected;
• The door opens;

• The new door is installed in the reverse order.
• The bolts securing the upper and lower hinges are turned;

Advice. Before the bolted hinges are fully tightened, the door must be slammed shut and adjusted to even out the gaps in the openings along the entire edge. Then you will need to open the door with decorations and tighten the latches all the way. It is advisable to double-check everything. If something goes wrong, the door lock has already been adjusted.

Width

1. The distance between the end points of the side mirrors is 1875 mm.
2. The distance between the front end points of the car (excluding side mirrors) is 1680 mm.
3. The distance from the center of the right front wheel to the center of the left is 1400 mm.
4. The distance from the center of the right rear wheel to the center of the left is 1370 mm.

When measuring the body geometry, remember that the body geometry of the VAZ 2112 differs in many places from the VAZ 2110.

Bumpers

These elements of the VAZ 2110 body are disassembled not only for the purpose of replacement or repair, but more often for the purpose of modernization and tuning:

• The negative terminal is removed from the battery;
• The radiator grille has been removed.

Advice. It will be easier to unscrew the 2 screws that hold the grille at the top with a 10 mm wrench.

• Using head 8, unscrew the bolts securing the bumper to the brackets;
• The bolts securing the bumper to the front panel are unscrewed with a 10mm socket;
• The front bumper can be easily removed by sliding it forward slightly.
• Using a curved screwdriver, unscrew the screws, fixing the wing skin on the top and bottom sides;
• Now you need to loosen the fastenings of the power unit protection. This is where a 10mm socket wrench comes in handy;

The rear bumper is removed in almost the same way as the front.

Geometry check

Here are four main types of measurements that will allow you to make sure that the car has not been in an accident and has the parameters you need:

1. Reconciliation of diagonals. Before proceeding with detailed calculations, you should make two simple measurements that will immediately identify the problem. The car needs to be measured diagonally on both sides. If the measurement results coincide (with an accuracy of a millimeter), this will mean that the body as a whole has the correct shape. But we should not stop at these two dimensions.
2. Checking the height of the racks. To take this measurement, you need to measure the height of the racks in four places. It is important to take measurements from the front and rear, as well as from both sides of the machine. The four indicators must match.
3. Identification of a distorted roof plane. To find out if your car's lid is in place, take measurements from the door diagonals. You need to measure from the bottom rear corner of the door to the top front corner, and vice versa. If the indicators coincide on both sides, good. Just in case, it’s worth checking the roof diagonals.

What putties should I use?

I recommend using “Chempropol-P”, it consists of two components: saturated polyester resin and hardener. This putty adheres well to panels. Such work must be carried out at temperatures above 19 C. The putty must be applied very quickly, since after 10 minutes it begins to harden. After an hour, the putty will completely harden. And the moment! The layer of polyester putty should not exceed 2 millimeters. By the way, if you don’t find this putty, you can still use “PE-0085”; it is very similar in composition and quality.

VAZ 2112 geometric body dimensions and their meaning

On a VAZ 2112, the geometric dimensions of the body will definitely be needed by the owner who intends to independently correct or restore the parts. The situation on the roads has been extremely depressing lately. Due to the large number of vehicles, motorists are more likely to be involved in accidents, major and minor. The owners of “two-wheelers”, of whom there are a lot in Russia, are no exception in this regard. Find out from the article how the geometric dimensions of the VAZ 2112 body affect the ease of driving and which parts on this model are most quickly subject to deformation.

When to change the upper arm silent blocks

The service life of the upper silent blocks of the front suspension on the Niva is quite high. However, signs of wear may appear already after a mileage of 70-80 thousand km, or even earlier if the car is operated on a dirt road. The first sign of a worn silent block is a creaking and knocking sound when driving over uneven surfaces.

In the most advanced cases, a worn silent block will affect the car's handling and ability to keep a straight line; increased uneven tire wear and yaw along the road in a straight line are possible. The easiest way to determine the condition of the silent block is visually - there should be no cracks or chips on the surface of the rubber, and there should be no delamination or play.

Getting to know the “twelve”

ATTENTION! A completely simple way to reduce fuel consumption has been found! Don't believe me? An auto mechanic with 15 years of experience also didn’t believe it until he tried it. And now he saves 35,000 rubles a year on gasoline! Read more"

The VAZ 2112 or “two-piece” car was produced, like its analogues, at the Volzhsky Automobile Plant. It is a 5-door hatchback body, reminiscent of the VAZ 2110 sedan in shape.

Production of the “twelve” began in the 99th year of the last century. The car body was copied from the VAZ 2110, but shortened to 4170 mm. The volume of the luggage compartment is 400 liters. Due to the shortening of the body, the car, compared to the “ten”, began to respond better to turning the steering wheel.

And in general, the model has a sportier character than the VAZ 2110. Combining all the advantages of the “ten”, the VAZ 2112 is also equipped with the rear seat of the 2111 station wagon.

The clear improvements over previous models are as follows:

• Despite the small length of the body, you can increase the small volume of the hatchback by transforming the rear seat;
• Better handling, especially when entering corners.

Like most VAZ models, the “dvenashka” was produced in several modifications and designs. In particular, we note the VAZ 21123 in the coupe body type. This modification even went through 3 body restylings and initially had a unique, original hood and bumper. Subsequently, the model was equipped with a grille and a standard hood.

Body features and the importance of geometric dimensions

In general, the “dvenashka” model is almost the most popular car in the domestic automobile industry, it is cheap and has a good design and a wide variety of body styles.

When developing this model, the manufacturer took into account many factors, including compliance with the individual tastes of each customer. In this regard, several body versions of the VAZ 2112 were produced, each of which had different targets.

Coupe, station wagon, sedan, hatchback - the “two-piece” was equipped with all these body types. The coupe is more correctly called a 3-door hatchback. This is the most rarely seen modification of the VAZ 2112. Its sporty design distinguishes it from other versions of the family, which are generally made quite monotonously.

Step-by-step construction instructions

The construction of any home-made structures begins with the design stage. You need to make a slipway that is convenient to use

It is important that it does not take up too much space, blocking free movement

Drawings and dimensions

First you need to make suitable drawings. Ready-made options can be found below. The markings are made according to the dimensions of the vehicle. Afterwards the stage of preparation and selection of tools and materials begins. We will also need to make a mounting system large enough to fit our vehicle. It would be nice to cook it with the ability to change the height.

1. Once all the drawings are ready and the materials have been selected, you can start working. First you will have to remove moisture from the materials and coat them with a primer. You can paint them right away, or you can leave this step for last.
2. Now weld the metal corners to the base profile.
3. Weld the profile (this will be the stand). It is secured with bolts.
4. Now the chains, hooks and retractable devices are welded.

Frame making

The frame is responsible for fixing the car. Therefore, you need to be careful when creating it.

1. Before creating the frame, you need to create the outer frame. It is to this that the frame will be mounted.
2. A metal profile is suitable as a material. A stand and grips are attached to it (they are needed to fix the car threshold).
3. Now the thresholds are being made. They are created from metal corners.
4. Thresholds are installed on beams and secured with bolts.
5. After installation, all elements will have to be secured by welding.

Fastening the body to the slipway

Clamps are required for fastening. If you can't buy them, make your own. You will need railway platforms (what the rails are attached to the sleepers). Each of the platforms is cut in half, and metal is welded onto the inside. It is cut into diamonds using a grinder.

You don't need to do anything to the outside. A plate 4 millimeters thick is also welded to the inside. It is important that the clamping device fixes the threshold and does not bend during use.

Installation of rack and pulling devices

Factory hydraulic attachments are suitable for racks and devices. If they cannot be purchased, a homemade mechanism will do. The power of the device should be from 1 to 2 tons. To attach the pulling devices, you need a pad. It is made from a channel and installed in the frame of the slipway. To place the tightening mechanism and chains in any place, it is necessary to make holes in the frame along the entire slipway.

Body parts

The VAZ 2112 is popular among novice motorists. This is precisely what can explain certain shortcomings and deformations that appear on the car body elements over time. A novice driver is usually inexperienced and makes certain mistakes that lead to accidents or breakdowns.

Note. Bumpers suffer more often than others. These body elements are damaged during sudden braking or when the start is not timely enough, which leads to impacts from the front and rear.

Car wings are no less susceptible to deformation. These parts themselves are not very strong, and if they collide in a serious accident, they are severely deformed. Less serious damage can be corrected, according to the dimensions given by the standard geometry of the VAZ 2112 body. Complex deformations cannot be restored, and it is easier to replace.

Note. The front wings of the VAZ 2112 suffer most often, since these are the parts that break during side front impacts when the “twelve” does not give way.

And, of course, corrosion eats up a lot of parts of the VAZ 2112 if the owner does not take sufficient care of the vehicle. The hood, doors and those parts of the body that are either hidden from view or located close to the road surface are most often exposed to the negative effects of rye.

Radiator frame

This part of the body of the “tens” is called the TV. The element is replaced in case of a strong frontal impact, when the “original” part is easier to replace than to repair.

As a rule, during a frontal impact, the upper frame and the beam that serves to strengthen the bumper are more deformed. But the TV is still completely changing.

According to experts, replacing a TV with a “ten” is much easier than with a “nine” or other models previously produced by AvtoVAZ. This is due to the simplicity of the design of the “ten” radiator frame.

Note. In some cases, the top frame and bottom bar are sold separately.

The TV is attached to the body using soldering points. They are located in 4 places: the radiator frame is fixed at the junction with the wing reinforcements (“arrows”) and with the spars. To disassemble the TV, it will be enough to drill points in these places and then cut with a sharp chisel.

Advice. In the process of removing the TV, it is possible to disassemble the radiator itself, only in this case you must remember to disconnect the radiator pipes.

After installing the new radiator frame, the weld areas will need to be thoroughly cleaned with an abrasive wheel and putty. Where the chassis touches the body, sealant must be applied.

Geometric dimensions of openings

You can learn more about what the main body dimensions of the VAZ 2112 are from the table above and photo materials. In addition, valuable information about methods for measuring geometric diagonals can be gleaned from other instructions presented on our website.

Forget about fines from cameras! An absolutely legal new product - Traffic Police Camera Jammer, hides your license plates from the cameras that are installed in all cities. More details at the link.

• Absolutely legal (Article 12.2);
• Hides from photo and video recording;
• Suitable for all cars;
• Works through the cigarette lighter connector;
• Does not cause interference to radios and cell phones.

Front wing

In the top ten, the front fender is disassembled for repair or replacement, as is the radiator frame. Here are the instructions to follow when replacing:

• Another bolt fixing the sash from below is unscrewed from the head by 10;
• The covering is removed;
• The protective cover is removed, after which the socket with the lamp is disconnected;
• The wing moves slightly to the side, the side repeater is removed from its place;
• Then the decorative element of the threshold is dismantled;
• Now you need to unscrew the 5 nuts that secure the crankcase protective element;
• There is a bolt at the bottom that secures the trim on the side; it needs to be loosened;
• A new sealant is installed, the bracelet also needs to be changed;
• All that remains is to unscrew the rear and top bolts. It will be more convenient to do it through the wheel arch;
• After carefully adjusting the gaps, the bolts are finally tightened.
• Wing removed;
• The battery is de-energized by disconnecting the terminals;

Tuning

VAZ-2112 is one of the best solutions of the Russian automobile industry. The car has little comfort. However, many people strive to highlight their vehicle through tuning. Nowadays, tuning has become very popular, especially for domestic cars. Due to the fact that manufacturers have reduced the body size, the hatchback has become more comfortable to drive.

Another advantage can be added to the high ability to maneuver during turns, which makes this car look like a sports class car. “Dvenashka” is, on the whole, a complete and comfortable car, but almost every master will find something that needs to be improved. For example, you can update the silhouette of a car. For this, various additions are used that allow you to create a new appearance for the Lada 2112. In addition, experts advise increasing the aerodynamic data of the vehicle.

Appearance tuning

To change the appearance, new body components should be used. Some VAZ-2112 owners resort to a stylish aerodynamic body kit, which can have a different appearance. There is a sporty type, and there is a body kit that emphasizes the unique style and characteristic feature of the Soviet hatchback.

After installing such body kits, the “two-piece” will be a little similar to American cars. There are two types of aerodynamic body kit for such a five-door:

• The first - with a sporty bias - affects the smoothness of control when moving at high speed due to the correct structure;
• The second is one that improves style. The kit includes an impressive air intake, which allows you to easily cool the power unit and braking system.

You can upgrade your car if you work on its lighting. The lighting is installed not only under the bottom itself, but also the lights located at the stern. More modern front optics will help rejuvenate the hatchback, giving it a sporty touch. In this case, LED lighting is used.

On the practical side, you can install a heated windshield, which helps save a lot of time when cleaning the glass in winter. In the warm season, such tuning of the VAZ-2112 helps reduce fogging of the vehicle.

Interior tuning

The interior of the car is the favorite part of the car for tuning enthusiasts. Typically, owners decide to install lighting in the interior. Not everyone likes the standard dashboard lighting. Such work can be carried out by any car owner of a Lada 2112 hatchback. There are craftsmen who replace the ceiling with one similar to that of a Lada Priora.

It fits perfectly as it matches the dimensions. Similar actions are carried out with door trim. To improve the level of comfort, noise insulation work is being carried out. Also, for convenience, new seats with good lateral support, a high-quality music system, etc. are installed.

Tuning the technical part

To modernize the technical characteristics of the twelfth model, it is important to increase the displacement. It is determined based on the stroke diameter and piston. To increase this volume, use a factory version or do-it-yourself improvement. If you choose the second case, you will have to convert the factory stroke, but in this way it will not be possible to significantly increase the volume.

Engine chip tuning is very popular today. There is an economical and original sports version of chip tuning for the VAZ 2112. The sports method includes increasing the dynamic performance of the car in the city. You will have to be prepared for increased fuel consumption.

If your large fuel appetite is a bit daunting, you can switch to gas equipment. The economy option reduces fuel consumption in the city, which is what many people are interested in.

These works are carried out using special equipment and skills, so it is strongly recommended to carry out such processes at high-quality service stations.

Specifications

VAZ-2111 is the first station wagon of the Volga Automobile Plant with front-wheel drive. Production started in 1998.

The VAZ-2111 with a five-door station wagon body is positioned as a family car, adapted for various needs. Like its predecessors, it was considered extremely convenient for summer residents and those who often need to transport not very large, but voluminous loads. Front-wheel drive added to the “classic” a smooth ride, improved maneuverability and road stability. The interior has also been significantly improved.

The carrying capacity of the VAZ-2111 is 500 kg, and the volume of the luggage compartment can vary from 490 to 1420 liters. Maximum volume is achieved by folding the rear seat to form a horizontal surface. A roof rack is also provided, however, its load limit is 50 kg. In principle, many owners transported heavier loads, but this has an extremely negative impact on the body, suspension, etc. and can lead to distortion or even destruction of some parts of the car.

The salon is quite spacious and can accommodate five people. The specially designed driver's seat can comfortably accommodate people of different sizes. It is also possible to tow a 1000-kilogram trailer, equipped with its own braking system.

The body was specially designed for bad roads, and is able to withstand terrible stress even when the car is fully loaded. The body is mounted on the frame using rubber-metal beams at 10 points, which allows it to withstand heavy loads and dampen vibrations. This design makes the VAZ-2111 durable, strong, and reliable. The level of noise and vibration in the cabin is much lower than that of its predecessors. The wheelbase was increased, which, together with the independent rear suspension, made it possible to drive the car more confidently at high speeds; the ride became smooth and confident.

The steering column on the VAZ-2111 is adjustable. Rear disc brakes can significantly reduce the braking distance of the car. All components and assemblies of the car are designed specifically to operate under different temperature conditions (in the range from -40°C to +45'C). To increase comfort, the BSK and SAUO systems are installed in the car.

BSK is an on-board monitoring system that monitors the amount of technical fluids (for example, oil), the condition of the brake system, and the serviceability of headlights. Also, the BSK will warn the owner if he tries to call movement with the door open. Uses sound notification methods

SAUO is an automatic heater control system. It monitors the temperature in the cabin and automatically maintains the selected one.

The car can also drive on mountain roads. The maximum rise that the VAZ-2111 can overcome without problems is 34%. This is achieved thanks to a good clutch and engine.

As standard, the VAZ-2111 can be equipped with two families of engines: with a multi-point fuel mixture injection control system (each cylinder is equipped with its own nozzle) or with an electronic ignition system.

The 1.5-litre engine is capable of delivering 56kW of power and 118Nm of torque, which is also combined with economical petrol consumption. Another 16-valve engine with a twin-shaft cylinder head of 1.5 liters produces a power output of 69 kW and a torque of 130 Nm. This option makes the VAZ-2111 more dynamic. But also more gluttonous. The weight of the eleventh model is 20 kg more than that of the tenth, but the smoothness of movement has improved significantly.

The VAZ-2111 comes off the assembly line in three types: the basic VAZ-2111 (engine with a fuel injection system), VAZ-21111 (engine with a carburetor) and VAZ-21113 (equipped with a 16-valve engine, 14-inch wheels).

The basic VAZ-2111 had a sedan version, labeled as VAZ-21102. It had a VAZ-2111 engine, the volume of which was 1.5 liters. The VAZ-21111 brand is equipped with a VAZ-21083 engine with a displacement of 1.5 liters. The VAZ-21113 has a 16-valve VAZ-2112 engine and a modernized brake system (similar to the VAZ-21103 sedan).

A modification of the eleventh model VAZ-2111-90 (Tarzan 2) is a powerful all-wheel drive off-road vehicle. The engine, transmission and chassis in it correspond to the VAZ-21213 model.

The VAZ-2111 has three types of standard equipment: standard, norm and luxury, labeled as VAZ-21110-00 (standard) and VAZ-21113-00 (standard), VAZ-21110-01 (norm) and VAZ-21113-01 (standard), VAZ-21110-02 (luxury) and VAZ-21113-02 (luxury).

Control dimensions for checking the geometry of the underbody of a VAZ 2108 (2109, 21099) car

Results

Although the VAZ-2112 car has not been produced for a long time, it can be seen quite often on the streets of many cities in the post-Soviet space. The car was able to prove itself well, especially at the beginning of production. Many even mistook this hatchback for a foreign car. Even today, the car does not have such a rough design as, for example, the “nine” or similar cars, and even looks modern.

If the driver does not leave his car unattended, it will look good. “Dvenashka” received an average ground clearance, front-wheel drive, a more or less good interior and a spacious trunk. It is clear that the model cannot compete with foreign cars, but for its price it is the best option.

It is especially suitable for tuning lovers, as it has a lot of opportunities for improving the appearance, interior and technical parts. It will not be possible to avoid a poor-quality interior and low level of noise insulation. Also inside, especially in the back row, there is not enough free space. Creaking sounds will constantly accompany the driver on the road.

The power of the power plants is not always enough; the lack of power is mainly felt when overtaking. But the engine can be called quite economical, even in urban areas. The VAZ 2112, although not an ideal car, is good for a first car, as it has a low cost on the secondary market, low price tags for spare parts and is easy to repair.

I also need sizes to check, so which ones to use!

I made it approximately according to my measurements

You probably haven’t been here for a long time) I’ve already done and sold the car! I won’t edit the blog anyway!

Yes, I already made mine too. But this recording will still be useful to someone

Wow, I should try to measure it)

Didn't take any measurements? Otherwise, in just a week I’ll go on vacation, and I’ll start doing shamanism a little

Not yet, I won’t get around to it, but I’ll definitely write back if I intend to)

I would be very grateful
