REAR SHOCK ABSORBERThe rear shock absorber consists of a shock
absorber, coil spring, etc., arranged concentrically.
The shock absorber is a hydraulic cylinder of the
double action type with low sliding resistance, and
gives stable damping force.The inputs from the shock absorber and coil
spr,are borne by the upper bushings and spring pad,
respectively, for a better ride and lower vibration
and noise level. A polyurethane foam bump rubber
has been adopted for effective shock absorption in
the event of completely bottoming out.

-POWER STEERING GEAR BOX CONSTRUCTIONRlsJLIIUB,
ne steering gear box is of the rack and pinion type
with a built-in hydraulic control unit which uses a
compact and highly reliable rotary valve.The steering gear box, in the same way as the
manual steering gear box, is installed to the body by
way of the mounting rubber in order to reduce the
transmission of vibrations.

OIL PUMPRlUAM
The oil pump has a separate oil reservoir; it is a vane-type pumpthat generates hydraulic pressure by the rotor, vanes and cam
y”ht oil pump incorporates a flow-control valve (in order to
reduce the power-assist effect during high-speed driving and
thereby improve steering stability) and a relief valve (in order to
maintain the hydraulic pressure and steering linkage rela-
tionship).
NOTEThe relief valve is incorporated within the flow-control valve.
OPERATION OF THE OIL PUMP
The rotation of the rotor causes the ten vanes to move radially
by centrifugal force, and when there is rotation along the cam
curved surface of the circular cam ring, there is action in the
radial direction along the cam curved surface.
The fluid chamber is formed by the cam ring, rotor and vanes;
when the rotor rotates the inner surface of the cam ring
(circular), the fluid chamber pressure changes to negative
pressure, with the result that the fluid within the oil reservoir,
which is at atmospheric pressure, is drawn in (suction step),
after which the rotor rotates further, discharging the fluid
(discharge step).
The action of this pump is two intake strokes and
two
discharge strokes for each vane during one rotation of the rotor.

MANUAL TRANSAXLE <4WD>
GENERAL INFORMATION
W5M33 transaxle is a transaxle for 4WD, having
center differential mounted on the output shaft ofwheels. Using the viscous coupling as a device for
the conventional front
wheeledrive type transaxle solimiting differential of the center differential, this
as to distribute drive power to the front and reartransaxle is a full time 4WD type and provides
improved traction and easy drive.
