Pendulum Support Bonded Rubber Bushing, Front Wheel Drive

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required

• Installation Device (3372)

• Assembly Tool (T10214)

• Assembly Tool (T10244)

Bonded rubber bushing, pressing out

- Remove subframe. Refer to => [ Subframe without Steering Gear ] Subframe without Steering Gear.

- Attach (T10244) to subframe.

- Press out both bonded rubber bushings at the same time as depicted in the illustration.





• The flattened side of the installation device (3372/1 ) must face toward (T10244) insert - A -, otherwise insert can be damaged.

• Tube (T10244/3) has a larger and a smaller inner diameter. Subframe must contact larger inner diameter of tube (T10244/3).

Bonded rubber bushing, pressing in

- Bolt both bonded rubber bushings with original bolt, cutouts - arrows - must align when doing this.





- Insert the bolted bonded-rubber bushing with bolt head facing downward into tube (T10214/2).





1. Press piece (T10214/3)

2. Bonded rubber bushing

3. Tube (T10214/2)

4. Tube (T10214/1)

5. Thrust plate (VW 401)

6. Thrust plate (VW 402)

- Press bonded rubber bushing - 1 - in until dimension - a - has been obtained.





Dimension - a - = 2 - 3 mm.

- Align (T10214/2) with pressed in bonded rubber bushings onto subframe. While doing this, the corners of the inner core must be parallel to the edge of the (T10244).

Distance - a - must be identical at left and right to guarantee parallelism.





- Place subframe on smaller interior diameter of (T10244/3 ).

- Press in bearing on stop and until a pressing force of 20 kN has been obtained.





- Remove (T10244) from subframe and check seating of the pressed in bonded rubber bushing.

• The outer diameter - 1 - of both bonded rubber bushings must not project more than 2 mm into the area of the pendulum support opening.





• Cutouts of bonded rubber bushings must lie at center in opening of subframe.

• A gap - arrow - between bonded rubber bushings is permitted.

- Install subframe => [ Installing ] Subframe without Steering Gear.
