UPPER CONTROL ARM SPHERICAL JOINT

Chevrolet, Chevelle, Comoro and Corvette

Inspection

The upper spherical joint is checked for wear by

checking the torque required to rotate the ball stud in the

assembly. After performing the first four steps under

"Replacement" below, install a stud nut on the stud and

measure the torque required to turn the stud in the as-

sembly with a torque wrench. Specified torque for a new

joint is 9 lbs. ft. If torque readings are excessively

high or low, replace the ball joint. If excessive wear is

indicated in upper joint, both upper and lower joints

should be replaced.

NOTE:
This inspection does not necessitate

upper control arm removal.

Replacement

1.
Support the vehicle weight at the outer end of the

lower control arm.

2.
Remove the wheel and tire assembly.

3.
Remove cotter pin and nut from upper control arm

ball stud.

4.
Remove the stud from knuckle.

5. Cut off the ball joint rivets with a chisel.

6. Install new joint and retain in place with the special

nuts and bolts supplied.

7. Reassemble ball stud to the steering knuckle.

Inspection

The following on-the-vehicle check is to determine ball

joint wear.

NOTE:
The upper ball joint is a loose fit when

not connected to the steering knuckle. Wear may

be checked without disassembling the ball stud

by
using'
the following procedure:

1.
While vehicle weight is still on front wheels, insert

upper control arm support as shown in Figure 14.

2.
Raise vehicle and allow wheel and tire to hang free.

3.
Measure distance from tip of ball stud to top surface

of control arm.

4.
Place adjustable jackstand under tire and raise

slightly to take up ball joint looseness.

5. Repeat Step 3 and if the difference in measurements

exceeds 3/32", the joint is excessively worn and

should be replaced.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

CHEVROLET

The link type rear suspension (fig. 1) has two lower

control arms which maintain proper axle to frame re-

lationship and also take the acceleration, drive and

braking forces. A single upper control arm on light-

duty models (or two upper control arms on heavy-duty

models and all station wagons) limits axle rotation when

drive, acceleration or braking forces are applied. Lateral

movement of the axle is restricted by the axle-to-frame

tie rod. Two full coil springs and two direct, double
acting shock absorbers are provided for additional ride

control.

CHEVELLE

The rear suspension (fig. 2) is of the four-link design

utilizing axle mounted, full coil springs and direct,

double-acting shock absorbers.

Two rubber-bushed lower control arms, stretching

slightly outboard from axle-mounted brackets to frame

side member mounted brackets, maintain fore and aft

plying pressure to the puller screw.

5.
Remove shim and bearing spacer from spindle

support.

6. Note size of shim used. If dial indicator reading

was more than
.008",
select a shim thinner by the

amount needed to bring end play within limits. If

dial indicator reading was less than
.001",
select a

shim thicker by the amount needed to bring end play

within limits.

NOTE: Shims are available in thicknesses from

.097"
to .148" in increments of
.003".

EXAMPLE: Bearing end play reading obtained

on dial indicator was
.011",
.003" over limit.

Bearing shim removed from spindle measures

.145".
New shim installed measures .139", .006"

smaller. End play is now decreased by .006" and

is

Removal

To remove either or both rear coil springs proceed

as follows.

1.
Raise rear of vehicle and place jack stands under

frame. Support vehicle weight at rear, using either

a jack or post of twin-post hoist under axle.

2.
Remove both rear wheels from vehicle.

3.
With the car supported as in Step 1, so that the rear

springs are compressed by weight of vehicle; per-

form the following:

a. Disconnect both rear shock absorbers from the

anchor pin lower attachment.

b.
Loosen the upper control arm(s) rear pivot bolt

(do not remove the nut).

C. Loosen both the left and the right lower control

arm rear attachment (do not disconnect from axle

brackets).

d. Remove the rear suspension tie rod from the

stud on the axle tube.

4.
At the lower seat of both rear coil springs, slightly

loosen the nut on the bolt that retains the spring and

seat to the control arm. When the nut has been

backed off the maximum permissible, all threads of
the nut should still be engaged on the bolt.

CAUTION: Under ,no condition should the nut,

at this time, be removed from the bolt in the

seat of either spring.

5.
Slowly lower the support (jack or hoist post) that has

been in place under the rear axle, thereby allowing

the axle to swing down, carrying the springs out of

their upper seat and providing access for spring

removal.

6. Remove the lower seat attaching parts from each

spring, then remove the springs from the vehicle

(fig. 14).

Installation

1.
Position the springs in their upper seat so that end

of top coil is 3/8" ± 1/8" from end of stop. Install

the lower seat parts on the control arm, with the nut

finger tight on the spring retainer bolt.

NOTE: Omit the lock washer under the special

high carbon bolt, so that sufficient bolt thread

will be available to start the nut. The lock

washers will be installed later (in Step 4).

2.
By alternately raising the axle slightly and then

re-snugging the nut on each spring lower seat bolt,

move the axle upward until vehicle weight is fully

REAR AXLE NOISE DIAGNOSIS

Mechanical failures of the rear axle are relatively

simple to locate and correct. Noise in a rear axle is a

little more difficult to diagnose and repair. One of the

most essential parts of rear axle service is proper

diagnosis.

Ail rear axles are noisy to a certain degree. The

action of transmitting the high engine torque through a

90° turn reducing propeller shaft speed produces noise

in rear axles. This point establishes the need for a line

between normal and abnormal or unacceptable axle

noises.

Slight axle noise heard only at a certain speed or under

remote conditions must be considered normal. Axle noise

tends to "peak" at varying speeds and the noise is in no

way indicative of trouble in the axle.

If noise is present in an objectionable form, loud or at

all speeds, an effort should be made to isolate the noise

as being in one particular unit of the vehicle. Axle noise

is often confused with other noises such as tire noise,

transmission noise, propeller shaft vibration and uni-

versal joint noise. Isolation of the noise as in any one

unit requires skill and experience. An attempt to elimini-

ate a slight noise may baffle even the best of diagnos-

ticians. Such practices as raising tire pressure to

eliminate tire noise, listening for the noise at varying

speeds and on drive, float and coast, and under proper

highway conditions, turning the steering wheel from left

to right to detect wheel bearing noise, will aid even the

beginner in detecting alleged axle noises. Axle noises

fall into two categories: gear noise and bearing noise.

GEAR NOISE

Abnormal gear noise can be recognized since it pro-

duces a cycling pitch and will be very pronounced in the

speed range at which it occurs, appearing under either

"drive," "float" or "coast" conditions. Gear noise

tends to peak in a narrow speed range or ranges, while

bearing noise will tend to remain constant in pitch. Ab-

normal gear noise is rare and usually originates from

the scoring of the ring gear and pinion teeth as a result

of insufficient or improper lubrication in new assemblies.

Side gears seldom give trouble as they are used only

when the rear wheels travel at different speeds.

BEARING NOISE

Defective bearings will always produce a whine that is

constant in pitch and varies with vehicle speed. This fact

will allow you to distinguish between bearing noise and

gear noise.

1.
Pinion bearing noise resulting from a bearing failure

can be identified by a constant rough sound. Pinion

bearings are rotating at a higher speed than differen-

tial side bearings or axle shaft bearings. This

particular noise can be picked up best by testing the

car on a smooth road (black top). However, care

should be taken not to confuse tire noise with bear-

ing or gear noise. If any doubt exists, tire treads

should be examined for irregularities that would

produce such noise.

2.
Wheel bearing noise may be confused with rear axle

noise. To differentiate between wheel bearings and

rear axle, drive the vehicle on a smooth road at

medium-low speed. With traffic permitting, turn
Fig.
74—Scored Hypoid Ring Gear

the vehicle sharply right and left. If noise is caused

by wheel bearings, it will increase in the turns be-

cause of the side loading. If noise cannot be isolated

to front or rear wheel bearings, inspection will be

necessary.

3.
Side bearings will produce a constant rough noise of

a slower nature than pinion bearings. Side bearing

noise will not fluctuate in the above wheel bearing

test.

Failure Analysis

The most common types of rear axle failures are

hypoid gear tooth scoring and fracture, differential gear

fracture. and/or differential bearing failure, and axle

shaft bearing failure.
