Installation method of automobile shock absorber buffer block

1. It must be installed at the car four service shop. Before installation, stop the car on a flat ground, and prepare buffer block, jack (it is more convenient to install the rack if possible), soapy water (you can also use detergent diluted water instead);

2. Use the jack to lift the body of the installation part (or the upper frame to lift the whole vehicle), the spring is stretched to facilitate the installation. You can fully see the shock absorber spring, there is no need to raise it too high;

3. Spray soapy water to clean the spring (mainly to remove sand stains on the surface of the spring), and also spray some soapy water to lubricate the buffer rubber (sufficient lubrication will make it easier for the spring to be in place and calibrated). After installation, thoroughly clean the soapy water. Prevent automobile safety parts – shock absorber spring from rusting and breaking, causing human injury;

4. Install the buffer rubber in the middle of the spring, …, after each wheel is installed, put down the car body, and confirm that the spring is inserted into the upper and lower grooves of the buffer rubber.

Car Spring Buffer Block Installation Skills And Experience:

The specifications of the buffer rubber are mainly directly related to the “spring spacing”. Please be sure to pay attention to the specifications of the buffer rubber installed that are suitable for the corresponding springs. If the specifications do not match, please do not install them (if you are shopping online, it is recommended to measure the spring spacing before purchasing, That is the safest and most secure way).

The perimeter of the buffer rubber may exceed the perimeter of the spring (that is, the end of the buffer rubber will overlap after installation). Pay attention to evenly cutting both ends, for example: if there is an excess (overlapping) 8 cm, cut off 4-5 cm at the end.

If the circumference of the spring is too large (the buffer rubber does not wrap around the spring once), then pay attention to whether it reaches two-thirds of the spring. If it is two-thirds enough, then no problem, it will not affect the use effect; if it is less than two-thirds or even less (this phenomenon is very rare), you need to use two buffer rubbers in combination (you can only wrap around the spring one circles, cannot overlap).

No matter what the overall style of the spring is (straight body, cone shape, inverted cone shape, barrel shape), the buffer block must be installed in the middle of the spring, so as to achieve the best effect. The opening of the buffer block outward or inward does not affect the use effect, but the opening of the inward will be more beautiful.

When the car body is lifted up, the spring is in a stretched state, and the distance between the spring and the buffer rubber during stretching cannot be matched (so the car body should not be raised too high), try to let the spring enter the buffer rubber groove or one side. into the slot. When slowly lowering the car body, check and pay attention that the spring is fully inserted into the upper and lower grooves of the buffer rubber.

After the buffer rubber is installed properly, it is recommended to use a nylon cable tie to tighten the buffer rubber and the spring at the position of the buffer rubber hole (click to see what is a nylon cable tie). The reason is that when the car body is lifted later, the spring tension is not easy to get out of the buffer rubber groove.

Is Car Shock Absorber Bump Useful – Summary

In fact, the surface of this shock-absorbing rubber provides additional support for the spring, which expands the gap distance of the spring. The most direct effect of installing this shock-absorbing rubber is that the ground clearance of the body will increase by about 1-2 cm. . As for whether the installation of shock-absorbing rubber makes the suspension stiffer or softer, it has to be analyzed from two aspects. For models with insufficient spring support, that is, the suspension is soft, this shock-absorbing rubber hinders the normal stroke of the spring. The suspension will become stiffer, and for models with a stiffer suspension, the shock-absorbing rubber expands the spring gap and increases the ground clearance, so it will be softer than the original car after installation. The theory is so, but from the feedback of the riders who have actually installed the shock-absorbing rubber, the effect seems to be insignificant. The only thing worth affirming is the increased car height of 1-2 cm, which improves the passability to a certain extent.

In addition to the effect, there is also whether such an installation will damage the vehicle. In fact, there is a point of view that the editor still agrees with. If the effect is really good and there is no damage, then why does the car not come with it when it leaves the factory? It’s not worth much after all. The elastic force is equal to the elastic index multiplied by the deformation length. What I want to say here is that the suspension capacity of a car is set by the manufacturer before, that is to say, the maximum load to bear, without causing the car to drop to a height that affects the exercise.

At the same time, this thing also has a very bad effect on the damper oil seal, and the probability of oil leakage of the damper is greatly increased. Another point is that the vehicle has been strictly tested before leaving the factory. The addition of shock absorption rubber will make the vehicle 1-2 cm higher. Although the passing performance has improved, the vehicle itself will become higher and the suspension will become stiffer, which is very easy. Affecting the center of gravity of the vehicle increases the probability of an accident at high speeds.
