STEERING
57-8 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Steering box
The steering box is located behind the first cross member of the chassis and is secured to the chassis rail with four
bolts. The steering box is of the worm and roller type and has a rotary control valve. The steering box is connected to
the steering knuckles of the front road wheels by the drop arm, drag link and track rod. The steering box is lubricated
by the hydraulic fluid in the housing. The input shaft is attached to the steering wheel via the intermediate shaft and
steering column. The drop arm is secured to the output shaft with a nut and tab washer. A ball joint allows movement
between drop arm and drag link, the ball joint is secured with a locknut. The steering box requries approximately 3.5
turns from lock to lock.
As a maintenance aid, an alignment bolt can be used to lock the drop arm at the steering box centre position. The bolt
fits in a groove in the rear face of the drop arm and screws in to a threaded hole on the bottom of the steering box
housing.

FRONT SUSPENSION
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 60-13
Lateral acceleration of the body is sensed by two accelerometers and signals are transmitted to the ECU. The engine
driven hydraulic pump supplies a constant hydraulic flow to the valve block. Two directional control valves are
solenoid operated by the ECU and these supply fluid to the applicable side of each actuator to apply an equal and
opposite force to the torsion bar. In operation the ACE system maintains the attitude of the vehicle body when
cornering.
The ACE system uses a semi-synthetic hydraulic fluid which is the same as the fluid used for the PAS system. The
total capacity of the ACE system is 1.62 litres (0.42 US Gallons).
CAUTION: The ACE hydraulic system is extremely sensitive to the ingress of dirt or debris. The smallest
amount could render the system unserviceable. It is imperative that the following precautions are taken.
lACE components are thoroughly cleaned externally before work commences;
lall opened pipe and module ports are capped immediately;
lall fluid is stored in and administered through clean containers.
In the event of an ECU or hydraulic failure the system will fail safe to a 'locked bars' condition. The 'locked bars'
condition will allow the torsion bars to operate in a similar manner as conventional 'passive' anti-roll bars. Prolonged
cornering forces will allow a progressive increase in roll angle due to hydraulic leakage through the actuators and
valve block. Failures will be relayed to the driver by the illumination of the ACE warning lamp in the instrument pack.
Faults are recorded by the ECU and can be retrieved using TestBook.
When the ignition switch is moved to position II, the warning lamp will illuminate for two seconds to check functionality.
The warning lamp functionality can also be checked using TestBook.
TestBook must also be used to perform a bleeding procedure after maintenance operations have been performed to
ensure that complete system bleeding is performed. Trapped air in the system can seriously reduce the system
performance.
Fluid reservoir
The moulded plastic fluid reservoir is mounted on the left hand side of the engine compartment on a bracket which is
attached to the inner wing. The reservoir is dual purpose, being divided into two separate chambers; one for the ACE
system and one for the PAS system. Each chamber has its own filler neck and cap and is identified by moulded
lettering on the reservoir adjacent to each filler.
A non-serviceable filter assembly is fitted in the base of each chamber. The filter is made from fine stainless steel
mesh which is moulded into the body of the reservoir. The filter removes particulate matter from the fluid before it is
drawn into the hydraulic pump.
Upper and lower fluid level marks are moulded onto the reservoir body. The capacity of the ACE reservoir chamber
to the upper level mark is 0.5 litre (0.13 US Gallon).

BODY SEALING MATERIALS
MATERIALS AND APPLICATIONS 77-3-5
Cooper Pegler Falcon Junior Pneumatic Gun (Airless)
Intended primarily for applying transit wax, this pneumatic sprayer has a 5-litre container with integral hand pump and
provides an effective means of wax spraying without the need for compressed air or additional services.
A selection of nozzles, lances, hose lengths and a trigger valve assembly with integral filter allows flexibility in use.
Additional applications include general maintenance, wax injection and paint application. Heavy-bodied materials
may also be applied. All parts are fully replaceable and a wide range of nozzle configurations is available.
SATA Schutz Gun Model UBE
The SATA Schutz Gun is approved for the retreatment of vehicle underbody areas with protective coatings as
supplied in 1 litre, purpose-designed 'one-way' containers. The screw thread fitting (female on the gun) is standard
to most Schutz-type packs.
SATA HKD1 Wax Injection Injection Equipment
This equipment is approved for carrying out cavity wax re-treatment. The SATA HKD1 set comprises a high quality
forged gun with 1-litre pressure feed container, a flexible nylon lance, a straight 1100 mm (43.307 in) steel lance and
hooked- wand lance. A quick-change coupling is provided as a standard fitting to allow lances to be easily
interchanged. Each lance has an integral, machined nozzle with specialised spray characteristics to suit the type of
box section to be treated.
NOTE: Always clean gun after use with appropriate solvent to maintain efficiency.
