Repairing the front suspension, I would like to say that there is nothing difficult if you arm yourself with all the required tools and act according to the instructions. Roads in our country have never been of high quality, and they especially deteriorate in early spring. When the snow melts, numerous cracks and potholes can be found in the asphalt. As you know, the suspension of the VAZ 2106 car is designed to soften vibrations transmitted to the car body from holes and potholes on the road surface. Due to the influence of time, the chassis wears out, as a result of which it requires repairs, which can be carried out independently. More on this later in the article.
Front suspension device, what tasks it performs
The front suspension of a vehicle determines its maneuverability in turns and smooth movement. To ensure a safe and comfortable ride, you should systematically carry out vehicle maintenance and diagnostics. The presence of any extraneous sounds, knocking or grinding noises when driving, as well as a swaying sensation, indicates a malfunction of the front suspension of the VAZ 2106.

The lower lever on VAZ-2101, VAZ-2102, VAZ-2104, VAZ-2105, VAZ-2106, VAZ-2107, Zhiguli cars must be changed if: the lever is bent or cracks are found on it (it is not recommended to cook the lever), the silent blocks rotate lugs. This work cannot be called easy. But you can’t call it unfeasible either.
