Use an intermediate layer (hard rubber). Do not damage the brake cover plate.

When fitting the ball joints, ensure that the bevel pinions are clean! Remove dirt or grease on bevel pinions, e.g. with a lint-free cloth. Do not use
cleaning agent/solvent.

Observe correct tightening torques.
1. Carefully guide in spring strut -arrow-, position with the auxiliary pins and tighten at the mounting saddle with the specified tightening torque.
2. Fit drive shaft. To do this, first fitter must carefully pull the top of the wheel carrier outwards and the second fitter must carefully guide in the drive
shaft.
3. Fit brake calliper on wheel carrier (do not tighten brake calliper fastening screws yet).
4. Mount wheel carrier on upper trailing arm. When doing this, observe drive shaft clearance (use suitable base). To facilitate assembly and avoid the
upper ball pin falling into the stop, raise the wheel carrier slightly with a suitable lift so that the upper ball pin can be inserted. Use a lift with
rubber base in order to prevent slipping.
5. Insert spring compressor VW 552 and slightly tension upper trailing arm.
