Vehicle Body's Basic Calibration Measurements
This section shows the basic parameters of the overall vehicle. Please refer to this section when servicing or
repairing.
• All figures used to express measurements are actual figures.
• Measuring points are taken from the center of the mounting holes.
• When using the gauge, adjust the two measuring needles until they reach an equal length, then check
the measuring needle and the gauge itself to ensure there are no gaps.
• When using measuring tape, make sure not to stretch, twist, or bend it. \
• The asterisk (*) symbol after a numerical measurement value indicates that the other side's
symmetrical position is of equal value.
• Coordinates of the measuring points refer to the distances measured between the point and "X", "Y",
and "Z" standard lines.
• The left & right symmetry points of a measuring point's coordinate represent a coordinate point on the
left side, and that the right and left side are symmetrical.

Areas of Importance
1. Clutch Rigid Pipe Installation
Before installing, check to make sure that the rigid pipe flare contact area is in good condition, the pipeline is
clean, and that there is no foreign materials.
2. Clutch Hose Installation
Check the surface of the clutch hose to make sure that there is no scuffing and that the pipeline is clean.
3. Coat grease on the U-joint of the pedal and the master cylinder.
4. Strictly adhere to the set torque guidelines when tightening the pipe fittings.
Rigid pipe and the master cylinder: M10 16±2 N·m
Clutch rigid pipe and hose: M10 16±2 N·m
5. While the clutch system is undergoing the exhausting process, make sure that all the air bubbles in
the pipeline are cleared out. Then check the brake fluid level in the reservoir, it should be between
MIN and MAX.
Troubleshooting
The numbers in the table represent the order of the possible malfunction causes, so be sure to check each part in
turn. If necessary, replace the part.

037A Transmission’s Overall External Schematics
The 037A transmission is a step mechanical transmission with differential, two-shaft front wheel drive
application. The forward gear has adopted the inertia synchronizer gear-shifting mechanism, which offers
smooth and easy gear shifting, reduces noise dramatically, and improves the service life of the gear - important
in achieving the overall economical efficiency. Regarding its control mechanism, the set steel ball and spring
allow the shifting gear to be quick, accurate with solid handling. The 5th gear transmission is equipped with an
interlocking mechanism to prevent accidental switching to reverse, to im\
prove driving comfort and reliability.

Steering knuckle assembly removal
1. Preparation
First, remove the front wheel, the front shock absorber with
coil spring assembly, and the steering knuckle coupling
bolt in turn. For detailed steps, please refer to the removal
of the wheel and the front shock absorber with coil spring
assembly.
2. Remove propeller shaft nuts
(a) First, pry the flattened areas of the propeller shaft's nuts
into a circle with a chisel.
(b) Half-insert a long bolt or metal bar into the brake disc
holes to loosen the nuts (shown on the left).
Tightening torque: 225±20 N·m
Front Suspension
Components
(c) Pull out the mount point on the steering knuckle to
separate it from the mounting bracket under the front
shock absorber. Prop a wood stick or metal bar against
the propeller shaft's outer end, and then hammer the
stick or metal bar to get the propeller shaft out of the
hub (shown on the left).
Caution: When hammering, prop it up against the shaft
end's location holes (middle recess). Be sure not to
damage the thread.

3. Remove the wheel speed sensor and the brake hose
Remove the wheel speed sensor's mounting bolts with a M10
sleeve to take off the wheel speed sensor. Remove the front
brake hose's mounting bolts with a M18 sleeve, and then
take off the brake hose.
Caution: When removing the brake hose, brake fluid
may flow out, catch the fluid with a container. Also,
b e c a u s e t h e b r a k e f l u i d i s c o r r o s i v e , p l e a s e p a y
attention to personal protection.
4. Remove the cotter pins and lock nuts of the steering tie
rod and the lower swing arm
Because the ball stud and steering knuckle act in conjunction
with the tapered bore, they can not yet be removed after re-
moving the nuts. Pound the steering knuckle arm (unfinished
surface) with a hammer. Positions are shown on the left.
Shake to loosen.
Caution:
1. To avoid separating the ball studs, do not pound the
tie rod and the lower swing arm with a hammer.
2. To avoid damaging the thread, do not hammer the
ball stud's head.

Front shock absorber with coil spring assembly (Image)
Front shock absorber with coil spring assem-
bly removal and installation
1. Hoist up the vehicle so that the front suspension is in a
free suspension state.
2. Remove the wheel speed sensor and the brake hose.
Remove the wheels and take out the brake hose from the
shock absorber bracket. Then remove the wheel speed sensor
wire harness (shown on the left) from the steering knuckle.
3. Remove the coupling bolt between the front shock
absorber and steering knuckle and the brake hub
assembly.
Tightening torque: 132±10 N·m
4. Loosen the mounting nuts of the front shock absorber
and remove the front shock absorber with coil spring
assembly (shown on the left).
Tightening torque: 40±5 N·m
5. Installation of the front shock absorber with coil spring
assembly.
Installation follows the reverse order of removal, but
please pay attention to the areas of importance below:
(a) The Insertion direction of the bolts should be consistent
with direction shown in the image. Insertion order is
from up to down. After inserting, tighten them one by
one as required.
