Increased ground clearance on the Toyota Corolla

Russian roads require special attention. Little machines that do not catch on to head for the mound. Therefore, this article will be discussed to increase the ground clearance on the example of car Toyota Corolla. For the Corolla, you can use aluminum spacers designed to increase the clearance of VAZ 2108-2109. They are equipped with long bolts, which are identical to the thread with thread to the King. Work begins with the removal of racks. At hand should be ties, with which will be lifted springs. Before you start to compress the spring, we should weaken the central nut at the front, to avoid "shot". Once the rack is removed and with it removed the spring, we begin to dismantle it. Disassembly is limited to opening the upper bowl. Hammer knocked home (short) bolts are resistant to the body. These bolts have slots, and knocking you must apply one - two sharp blow. Then this place to establish new (long) bolts that are supplied with spacers. Next, assemble the rack. Set the anther, spring and cup with new bolts. The bolts from the top to install a spacer, and mount the rack in its place. After tightening the bolts, do not forget to tighten the central nut. The same operation done with other rack. Standard spacer has a thickness of 18-20 mm, and hence the clearance will increase, too, at this height. This part is devoted to the front suspension. Now raise the rear of the car. It is known that sags back more limber, because of the softer springs, so the technology to increase ground clearance is a little different. What will it take? Dismantle rear seat and backrest. Without disassembling the rack, loosen the central nut and remove the rack. In this case, the tie may not be needed, because the spring can be removed and so. But for better security all - still use them. Further down on the spring, we establish prefab rubber liner. Its thickness ranges from 3 to 5 cm for Toyota Corolla fit liner thickness of 30 mm. Putting the rack and set it on the car, while not forgetting to tighten the central nut. In reverse order continue to build, set back at first, and then the rest, because the back of each side of the nut is screwed at 10 to the body of the car. When racks removed, you can check the anthers, and in general their overall condition. High-quality and inexpensive service in the Toyota service center.
