RJ-1821-0

Submitted by administrator on Wed, 03/04/2015 - 00:58

For front suspension systems of 2WD vehicles, the torque of the bolts securing the lower arms and the lower arm ball joints may not be sufficient due to improper installation. If this problem is left unattended, the bolts may loosen, and in the worst case, they may break and cause the vehicle to stall.

Correction: 
The torque of the bolts securing the lower arms and the lower arm ball joints should be checked. If there is a gap between the bolt and the lower arm, or the bolt is missing, the lower arm and the bolt should be replaced, and if the bolt is broken, the ball joint should also be replaced. If there is no gap between the bolt and the lower arm, the bolt should be tightened to the correct torque.
