How to determine that the old rail needs repairs?
The main symptom in this case ischaracteristic knock on the front axle of the car. And, most interestingly, it appears only on small irregularities. If the machine withstands stumbling on deep potholes, and at the same time on insignificant pits produces a strong knock, you know - the rail needs repair.

In order to restore the formercharacteristics and properties of the rail, for a start we need to remove the front axle wheel. Next, disconnect the stabilizer bar on both sides, unscrew and remove the front stabilizer brackets (also on both sides). In the next step, you must remove the two hydraulic tubes with the bolts and unscrew the 2 nuts securing the broken mechanism to the body.

After all the new parts are installed in place, collect the rail and mount it back. Assemble in reverse order.
