Front Shock Absorber (For Sedan) Reassembly

Using a brass bar and press, install the strut mounting bearing onto the coil spring seat upper.

NOTICE:

The strut mounting bearing must be securely installed.

Using SST, compress the coil spring.

NOTICE:

Do not use an impact wrench. It will damage SST.

Install the coil spring onto the shock absorber.

NOTICE:

A spring of a smaller diameter should be installed in the upward direction.

HINT:

Fit the lower end of the coil spring into the gap of the absorber lower seat.

Install the spring bumper onto the upper coil spring seat with the air discharge groove of the spring bumper and the rib portion of the upper coil spring seat aligned.

NOTICE:

Securely insert the spring bumper into the upper coil spring seat.

Install the upper coil spring seat with the strut mounting bearing and spring bumper onto the shock absorber.

Provisionally tighten a new nut.

Remove SST from the front coil spring.

NOTICE:

Do not use an impact wrench. It will damage SST.

Using SST and a long socket hexagon wrench 6, fix the shock absorber rod and tighten the nut.

Torque:

without SST:

33 N*m{340 kgf*cm, 25 ft.*lbf}

with SST:

29 N*m{300 kgf*cm, 22 ft.*lbf}

HINT:

1. This torque value is effective when SST is parallel to the torque wrench.
   
2. This torque value can be obtained by using a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 300 mm (11.8 in.) and a SST with a fulcrum length of 40 mm (1.57 in.).
   
3. If using a torque wrench with a length that is not 300 mm (11.8 in.), calculate the torque specification for the torque wrench and SST based on the "without SST" torque specification (YARIS_NCP93 RM000000UYX0BYX.html).
