Front suspension


Recommended Posts

Good evening all,

 

On the front suspension,'lower wishbones to Trunnion, how many washers go on there?

I seem to remember that there is a thrust washer, lock washer, and then I thought there was another fairly thick washer before the castleated nut. The Haynes manual is only showing the first two.

What does everyone else have on theirs?

You don't get a lock washer with a castellated nut.

Parts book shows two washers.

Interesting!

 

Had another look at mine and what I have is a grooved washer, then a washer with splines that appears to engage over it. Then I thought there was another washer that went before the nut. Problem is, I'm having problems getting the split pin in with all of the former in place. It appears the parts list is showing something different!
