Nissan Micra Rear Suspension Exploded Diagram - Torque Specs & Parts (RA-5)

This scanned service manual page covers the rear suspension of a Nissan vehicle (section code RA-5). It presents an exploded parts diagram of the rear strut/shock absorber assembly and links, identifying components such as the coil spring, shock absorber, mounting cover, lock nut, washers, rubber bushings A and B, spring rubber seat, bumper seat, bumper rubber, bound bumper cover, and the upper and lower links. Tightening torque specifications are given in N·m (kg-m, ft-lb): upper and lower link fasteners at 77-98 N·m (7.9-10.0 kg-m, 57-72 ft-lb), the shock absorber lower mounting at 48-60 N·m (4.9-6.1 kg-m, 35-44 ft-lb), and the piston rod lock nut at 19-25 N·m (1.9-2.6 kg-m, 14-19 ft-lb). Notes state that final tightening must be carried out at curb weight with tires on the ground, and that oil or grease must not contact rubber parts (marked with an asterisk). Caution items warn against damaging or bending the piston rod during operation and instruct that the spring rubber seat be fitted correctly on the wheel house bracket, illustrated with a second figure showing upper/lower orientation of the spring rubber seat. Figure reference codes SRA440 and SRA419 appear on the page.
