Removal and power shaft installation

It is necessary to replace a type nut “Nylstop” with a nut “Enko” (it is established without application taking компаунда). If the car is already equipped by a type nut “Enko”, there is no necessity to replace it is it can be used four times. On models with Manual transmission at installation new cylindrical pins, fastening a power shaft to differential be required.

Grooves of an external SHRUS are covered taking компаундом. Therefore for removal of assemblage of a nave from the power shaft end the stripper is required.

REMOVAL

1. Remove a cap of a wheel/cap of a nave (where is available), then ослабьте a power shaft nut, and also wheel bolts. 2. Block back wheels, cock a manual brake, then поддомкратьте a forward part of the car and establish it on axial props. Remove a forward wheel. 3. On the models equipped ABS, remove the gauge of speed of rotation of a wheel as it is described in the Head Brake system. 4. Remove a fixing nut of a power shaft. If the nut has not been weakened, while the car was not поддомкрачен (address to paragraph 1), establish in a nave two bolts of a wheel and reliably tighten them. Ask the assistant to press firmly a brake pedal to block a nave, then by means of a nest and a lengthening core ослабьте and remove a nut. Alternatively, make the doubled tool from two pieces of a steel strip (one long, one short), having connected their bolt to a nut. Attach the tool to a nave, using two bolts of a wheel, and, keeping it thus motionless, turn away a fixing nut of a power shaft. 5. Turn away two bolts, fastening assemblage of a support of a brake to a rotary fist, and remove assemblage from a disk. A wire or twine piece tie up a support to a spring of a forward suspension bracket, trying not to pull a brake hose. 6. Loosen the also remove a nut, крепящую шаровый the hinge of a tip of cross-section steering bent for to a rotary fist. Let out a core of the spherical hinge by means of a special stripper (address to an accompanying illustration). 7. Loosen the also remove two nuts and their washers from bolts, крепящих a rotary fist to a suspension bracket rack. Pay attention that nuts are located on the back party of a rack. Take the top bolt, the bottom bolt at this stage should remain in working position (address to an accompanying illustration).

REMOVAL

1. Merge трансмиссионное oil as Maintenance service is described in the Head. 2. Loosen the also remove three bolts of fastening of a plate of a protective cover to a transmission wall (address to an accompanying illustration). 3. Deduce the top part of a rotary fist outside so that трипод the SHRUS left its case (address to an accompanying illustration). Be ready to an exit of oil and watch that with трипода rollers have not flied. 4. Remove the bottom bolt, крепящий a rotary fist to a suspension bracket rack. Separate an external SHRUS from a nave and remove a power shaft, using a hammer and выколотку, executed of soft metal. Ask the assistant to hold thus a nave and try not to damage protective covers. If this method has not worked, use a stripper (address to an accompanying illustration). Block nave assemblage, having inserted bolts into the rack basis.

REMOVAL

1. Turn a power shaft so that cylindrical pins, fastening an internal SHRUS to a shaft of a lateral gear wheel of differential became visible. Using a hammer and a punch in diameter of 5 mm, supersede cylindrical pins (address to an accompanying illustration). At installation new pins should be used. 2. Deduce the top part of a rotary fist outside so to separate an internal SHRUS from a shaft of a lateral gear wheel of differential. Remove from a gear wheel shaft a sealing ring (where is available). 3. Remove a power shaft as it is described above. 4. Pull the top part of a rotary fist outside and separate an internal SHRUS from drive a flange. 5. Remove a power shaft as it is described above.

INSTALLATION

1. Firm power shafts Renault are delivered in cardboard or plastic packing to prevent damage of protective covers. Even the light blow on a cover can cause its puncture. If the removed power shaft is not subject to replacement, it is recommended to place it in similarity of such packing, having made it of a cardboard.

INSTALLATION

1. Rub off walls картера transmissions and grooves of an external SHRUS. 2. Insert трипод the SHRUS into its case, supporting a power shaft in horizontal position. Combine apertures of a fixing plate of a protective cover with apertures in картере differential. Establish bolts of fastening and tighten their effort resulted in Specifications. Be convinced that the protective cover is not overwound. 3. Clear and dry up grooves of a nave and an external SHRUS and put on power shaft grooves taking компаунд (Renault recommends Lostite Scelbloc). 4. Displace the top part of a rotary fist inside, directing a power shaft to a nave. 5. Push a power shaft completely into a nave, then insert two fixing bolts of a rack of a suspension bracket (from a forward part of the car). Establish on washer and nut bolts and tighten their effort of the Head resulted in Specifications the Suspension bracket and a steering). 6. Clear a carving of fixing bolts of an arm of a support and cover its taking компаундом (Renault recommends Lostite Frenbloc). Establish a support into position and tighten bolts of an arm of a support the effort of the Head resulted in Specifications Brake system. 7. Block a nave and tighten a fixing nut of a power shaft the regulated effort of an inhaling. Alternatively, tighten a nut while only slightly, having postponed a definitive inhaling till the moment when the car will be lowered on wheels. 8. Be convinced that the nave rotates freely, then accurately remove from covers of SHRUS protective packing. 9. Establish a wheel. Lower the car on the earth and tighten wheel bolts the effort resulted in Specifications. If it is not executed yet, tighten also a fixing nut of a power shaft. 10. Fill transmission by the type specified in Specifications and quantity of oil and check up its level (address to the Head Maintenance service).

INSTALLATION

1. Clear and dry grooves of an internal SHRUS and a shaft of a lateral gear wheel of differential. Put on them a small amount молибденовой greasings (Renault recommends Molykote BR2). Where it is necessary, establish on the end of a shaft of a gear wheel a new sealing ring and displace it on a shaft to a transmission epiploon (address to an accompanying illustration). 2. Spread a power shaft on grooves of a shaft of a lateral gear wheel, having combined their apertures under cylindrical pins (address to an accompanying illustration). 3a. An arrangement of a cylindrical pin of an internal SHRUS of the right power shaft. 3b. Establish new cylindrical pins so that their grooves have defended from each other on 180 °, then put on the ends of pins hermetic (Renault recommends CAF 4/60 THIXO or Rhodoseal 5661) (address to illustrations). 4. Execute the actions described for the LEFT POWER SHAFT - MODELS With Manual transmission.
