Suspension
Check and test the condition and operation of the springs. If the springs show excessive corrosion or
have started to yield, then they should be changed out.
The springs can be susceptible to yield over time. The following check is recommended to identify
whether the springs are fit for purpose:
In-situ check
The top of the Sliding Sleeve should rest against the compression stop. If a
space exists between the top of the sliding sleeve and the compression stops
greater than 10mm, then the Spring should be replaced.
The Recoil Dampers need to be checked to. Ensure that the damper rod-end threads are not visible
below the clevis pin eye. Ensure that there is no sign of any fluid leaking onto the damper rods. The
Recoil Dampers should also be disconnected at one end so that their operation can be checked and to
check for any bowing of the damper rods.
Check the spring compression plate for any signs of deformation.
