Video instructions for replacing the front shock absorbers with a VAZ 2107
With moderate use, the front shock absorbers on a VAZ 2107 car can quite tolerably pass about 100 km. Gradually, the operation of the shock absorbers deteriorates and the car becomes loose, when it falls into a hole on the road, knocks are heard, and controllability at high speed deteriorates.
With enough wear and tear, the shock absorbers must be replaced. This is quite easy to do, especially if you have the necessary tool at hand. And you will need the following kit for this:
- Penetrating grease
- Keys 13 and 17
- Key for 6 or adjustable
- Flat blade screwdriver
In order to more clearly show the whole process of this Zhiguli repair, I recorded a video in which I demonstrated everything in detail, so that even a beginner could figure out this repair.
Video guide for replacing front shock absorbers on a VAZ “classic”
I would like to warn all readers right away that the video clip was filmed in such a way that I twisted the nuts with one hand and held the camera with the other. Therefore, at some points, the video quality is not very good. But basically, everything is clear, clear and clear! I wish you a pleasant viewing.
As you can see, there is nothing difficult in doing this work! It is enough just to have a garage with a pit or to raise the front of the car on bricks, for example, so that there is a distance of about 50 cm to the ground for convenient dismantling of shock absorbers.
As for the price of new parts, for the VAZ 2107 it is about 500 rubles apiece. And since we will need to change them in a couple in most cases, then get ready to give 1000 rubles. If you have any questions on this issue, write in the comments, we will sort it out together.
