An Abstract of Design, Analysis and Optimization of Rear Sub-frame using Finite Element Modeling and Modal Analysis by Gaurav Kesireddy Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Science Degree in Mechanical Engineering The University of Toledo May 2017 A sub-frame is a structural component of an automobile that carries suspension, exhaust, engine room, etc. The sub-frame is generally bolted to Body in White(BIW). It is sometimes equipped with springs and bushes to dampen vibration. The principal purposes of using a sub-frame are, to spread high chassis loads over a wide area of relatively thin sheet metal of a monocoque body shell, and to isolate vibration and harshness from the rest of the body. As a natural development from a car with a full chassis, separate front and rear sub-frames are used in modern vehicles to reduce the overall weight and cost. In addition, a sub-frame yields benefits to production in that subassemblies can be made which can be introduced to the main body shell when required on an automated line.

The OEM subframe bushings can either be pressed out or cut out. The entire OEM bushing must be removed, including all the outer metal “shells” (race). When the OEM bushing is completely removed, there should just be 1 ring of steel left that is part of the subframe itself. Press in the main bushing from the bottom of the subframe. See next page for proper orientation of bushing. To “raise” the subframe by ½”, both shims should be installed below the subframe. To “raise” the subframe by ¼”, one shim should be installed above the subframe and one shim installed below the subframe. To place the subframe at the OEM location (Formula D legal), place two .33" thick shims in the front and one .33" and one .25" thick shim above the subframe in the rear. To “raise” the subframe by .33”, place one .33" shim above and one below on the front and place one .33"shim below and one .25" thick shim above in the rear. To “raise” the subframe by .66" in the front and .58" in the rear place both .33" shims below the front of the subframe and one .33" and one .25" shim below the rear of the subframe. Optional: The supplied rubber isolators can be installed between the chassis and the subframe bushing to help dampen some noise. www.splparts.com Questions?: 512-691-9002 [email protected] © 2018 SPL Parts, Inc Bushing installation orientation For fitting S14 subframe onto S13 chassis, bushing holes should be closer to center of subframe.

  • Recalls Results by VIN - Vehicle Identification Number Print
    Recalls Results by VIN - Vehicle Identification Number Print VIN: 2G1WF55KX49403651 Year: 2004 Make: Chevrolet Model: Impala Number of Open Recalls: 2 NHTSA Recall Number: 14V400 Recall Date: July 3, 2014 Manufacturer Recall Number: N140350 SUMMARY: General Motors has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in 2000-2005 MY Chevrolet Impala and Monte Carlo, 1997-2003 MY Chevrolet Malibu, 2004- 2005 MY Chevrolet Malibu Classic, 1999-2004 MY Oldsmobile Alero, 1998-2002 MY Oldsmobile Intrigue, 1999-2005 MY Pontiac Grand Am, and 2004-2008 MY Pontiac Grand Prix vehicles. If the key ring is carrying added weight and the vehicle goes off road or experiences some other jarring event, it may unintentionally move the key away from the run position. If this occurs, engine power, power steering and power braking may be affected, increasing the risk of a crash. SAFETY RISK: The timing of the key movement out of the "run" position, relative to the activation of the sensing algorithm of the crash event, may result in the airbags not deploying, increasing the potential for occupant injury in certain kinds of crashes. Until the recall has been performed, it is very important that customers remove all items from their key ring, leaving only the vehicle key. The key fob (if applicable), should also be removed from the key ring. REMEDY: Dealers are to install two key rings and an insert in the key slot or a cover over the key head on all ignition keys, free of charge. RECALL STATUS: Recall INCOMPLETE MANUFACTURER NOTES: Visit manufacturer website at https://my.gm.com/recalls for more information.

In an effort to help dealers respond to customer inquiries about this recall, this message supplements the information previously provided. General Motors is recalling approximately 1.2 million older sedans and coupes in the U.S. from the 1997 to 2004 model years because drops of oil may be deposited on the hot exhaust manifold through hard braking, which can cause engine compartment fires. Some of these vehicles were previously repaired in earlier recalls and we are aware of some post-repair vehicle fires but no crashes or fatalities. There have been 19 reported minor injuries over the last six years. GM is finalizing a remedy for this condition. Question and Answers Q1. Which vehicles are involved? A1.
