2. To rebuild the center mount, you will need a repair kit that includes all the necessary washers. The details of the middle fastening and their relative positions are shown in B/Figure 9.5.
3. Removal and installation of the stabilizer are discussed in the previous section, although in this case there is no need to completely remove the stabilizer. After disconnecting any of its ends, you can unscrew the clamping bolts of the middle mount and remove its parts from the stabilizer (having previously removed the outer fastening).
4. Assemble the middle mount, observing the order of its parts. Check that the aluminum bracket is installed correctly and replace the 2 Nylstop nuts on the clamp bolts with new ones, installing the bolts with the heads first. Do not fully tighten the clamp bolts and nuts at this stage.
5. If new mounting rubbers are installed on the outer brackets, check that the protrusions on the flat surface of the rubbers are facing backwards. Lubricate the inner grooves of the rubber seals thoroughly and fill their recesses with Kluber Proba 270 Altemp grease. Do not tighten the bracket bolts at this stage.
6. Install the special tool (item no. 8.0903, item no) so that it engages with the 2 clamps of the middle mount. Hand tighten the nut on the tool to compress the assembled parts.
7. Tighten the stabilizer outer mount bracket bolts to the specified torque and check that the center mount clamps are positioned as shown in Figure 9.7. With the special tool nut hand-tightened, mark the position of the nut and tighten it from this position by one full turn. After this, tighten the 2 clamp bolts with nuts to the required torque.
