To prevent breakage of the contact disc under the steering wheel, the following instructions should be observed:

  • - before disconnecting the steering shaft from the steering mechanism, be sure to lock the steering wheel and wheels with a special device in the straight ahead position, and they must remain locked during the entire time of work;
  • - If the alignment of the contact plate was not done correctly, you need to remove the steering wheel for re-centering.

Only experienced workers who have undergone special training are allowed to perform this operation.

Put the car on a two-post lift.

We unscrew the three bolts securing the gearbox housing to the left power plant suspension support (Fig. 32)

We shift the gearbox back until the clutch housing studs come out of the holes in the cylinder block.

In this case, the input shaft of the gearbox should come out of the hub of the clutch disc

We move the box as far back as possible, remove the support from under it and, tilting the back of the box down, remove it from the car.

When removing the box, try not to rest the input shaft of the box on the petals of the basket so as not to deform them.

Install

Do not apply grease to the input shaft of the gearbox, so as not to damage the clutch slave cylinder and the splines of the input shaft of the gearbox.

To prevent fluid leakage, be sure to replace the clutch slave cylinder when replacing the clutch cover.

Make sure that the mounting sleeves are present and correctly positioned to ensure alignment of the engine and gearbox relative to each other.

Installation is performed in the reverse order of removal.

When installing, be sure to tighten the bolt of the steering shaft universal joint yoke terminal connection.
