Figure 3-19. Ball Joint Assembly
CAUTION: Ensure that the bearing insert is in place in the end of
each outer arm. If an insert has fallen out of the arm, refer to
Replacing a Ball Joint Insert on page 175 for instructions on re-
inserting it.
NOTE: This is a different procedure than for the Quattro H
robots.
NOTE: In the following steps, take care not to trap debris between the ball studs
and their sockets.
NOTE: The procedure for attaching outer arms is the same for all platforms.
1. Attach one pair of outer arms to each inner arm.
a. As illustrated in Figure 3-20, the outer arm assembly is most easily achieved by
pivoting the two arms away from each other lengthwise. This requires the least
stretching of the spring to attach the ball joints.
b. Slip one ball joint socket over the corresponding ball stud.
c. Swing the bottom end of the outer arm pair sideways as you slip the other ball
joint socket over the corresponding ball stud.
