| 1. Examine a condition of hinges of a steering shaft, existence of leaks from the steering mechanism, integrity of protective covers and consolidations. |
| 2. Check a wheel side play for what take a wheel hands in the provision 12 and 6 of hours and try to shake it in the vertical plane. Very small side play is admissible, but if a side play rather big, then further check is necessary to establish a source. Continue to swing a wheel while the assistant presses a foot brake. If the side play is eliminated or considerably reduced that probably that podshipn ки naves are damaged. If the side play is still considerable with the pressed brake, so there is a wear in connections and fastenings of a suspension bracket. |
| 3. Now take a wheel in the provision 9 and 3 of hour and try to shake it in the horizontal plane. Existence of a side play in the horizontal plane can be caused by wear in hug bearings or spherical hinges of steering draft. If internal or external spherical hinged connection is worn out, the side play will be obvious. |
| 4. Using the big screw-driver as the lever, check wear in plugs of fastening of a suspension bracket between elements of a suspension bracket and a point of application. |
