Spring rack
New spring and a new rack mount system spring rack to the dome spring racks are specially designed for Astra-H. Spring-loaded rack with gas-filled shock absorbers have a lightweight design. The new valve system improves the properties of a car shock absorber and the work of the steering. Newly developed separate supporting bearing also provides better noise isolation and damping. Two halves of the plastic retaining ring used to connect the spring stand with body (dome spring rack). Springs, which have been specially selected for the spring poles, provide a linear displacement of the piston rod in the spring rack, thus minimizing the friction between the piston and seal spring rack. The result is reduced wear and tear. This, in turn, has a positive influence on ride comfort. Fig. 4.6. The design of spring rack:
1 - plastic retaining ring, 2 supporting bearing
Electronically controlled shock absorber damping is used in conjunction with the damping system CDC, which is new for this class of cars.
