The fifth-generation medium-tonnage Lawn brand Next has been produced since 2014. With a body volume 43 percent greater than that of the previous generation, the total spring load capacity is no more than five tons. Using auxiliary air suspension to increase load capacity and protect the spring package is an effective measure to improve truck performance.
To strengthen the frame and support the rear springs, there is a ready-made solution that includes a transverse reinforcement and a full set of fastenings, as well as reinforced air springs.
General information
The front and rear suspensions of the car are on longitudinal semi-elliptic springs. The front springs are multi-leaf, the rear springs are multi-leaf. The front suspension is equipped with hydraulic shock absorbers installed in front of the front axle beam. Both axles are equipped with anti-roll bars.
The front ends of the springs are fastened to the frame by means of rubber-metal hinges, and the rear ends of the springs - by means of rubber-metal hinges and earrings. For proper operation of these hinges, the nuts securing them should be tightened with the springs straightened.
The springs are attached to the bridge with stepladders. The deflection of the front spring is limited by a rubber compression buffer and pad, the rear springs are limited by rubber compression buffers.
The rear suspension has 14 leaves in the main spring and 4 leaves in the suspension. The ends of the main and root leafs of the springs are clamped in massive rubber cushions.

With an aluminum onboard platform, wider and longer, GAZelle-Next costs 724 thousand rubles
It would seem that the car was first shown at an exhibition in Moscow at the end of last summer, but they say they have already accumulated good statistics on breakdowns and childhood diseases of the GAZelle Next. Where did she come from? It turns out that, more than ever in the last 20 years, great attention was paid to testing the promising GAZelle; in particular, for this purpose, new diagnostic and testing equipment was purchased for the GAZ scientific and technical center. Many tests were carried out on specialized stands. Over 100 test vehicles were assembled, 30 of which were sent for supervised operation to carriers in Nizhny Novgorod, St. Petersburg and Barnaul. In addition, for nine months, vehicle testing was carried out in Spain, not by gas specialists, but by a local independent research company.

GAZelle-Next
The test will take place in any weather... The location was chosen with a clear sporting bias - at the Nizhny Novgorod technical sports stadium. Its logo is two letters NR, almost Nürburgring, but Bavaria has never seen such an abundance of snow. It was all the more interesting to check, in a series of snowy turns, how much the handling of the new GAZelle has improved, because it now has an independent front suspension. Although it would still be better to walk the snake on dry asphalt... And the next day, when the sun was already shining, the journalists were taken in a car and assembled on an assembly line. Another thing that was interesting here was that the installation of the line for the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter was finishing there. Assembly of these cars will begin soon. By the end of the second day, it became clear that GAZelle Next would not only complement the Nizhny Novgorod Mercedes, but could also compete with it.
Suspension
Car suspension maintenance
When maintaining the suspension, it is necessary to periodically tighten the nuts of the stepladders, the nuts of the bolts of the rubber-metal hinges, and the fastening parts of the spring brackets and shock absorbers. Particular attention should be paid to the timely tightening of the rubber compression spring, since a loose fastening can lead to its loss.
Possible suspension malfunctions and ways to eliminate them
| Cause of malfunction | Remedy |
| Frequent suspension breakdowns | |
| The car is overloaded | Avoid overloading the vehicle |
| Broken spring leaf | Replace spring or broken leaves |
| Residual deformation of leaf springs or one of them (springs “sank”) | Replace the spring or springs |
| Lost or damaged rubber compression spring | Install a new rubber compression spring |
| Breakdowns are accompanied by a metallic knock | |
| Lost or damaged bounding buffer or buffers | Install new buffer or buffers |
| The car is moving to the side | |
| Displacement of the rear axle relative to the spring due to loosening of the stepladder nuts | Loosen the stepladders, put the bridge in place and tighten the stepladders |
| Displacement of the main sheet upon destruction of the center bolt | Replace center bolt |
| Root leaf breakage | Replace root leaf |
| Vehicle roll to one side | |
| Broken spring leaf | Replace spring or broken leaves |
Spring suspension repair
To troubleshoot, replace parts and assemblies, the suspension is subjected to complete or partial disassembly. To increase the deflection of the spring sheets, straightening them with blows of a hammer or sledgehammer is unacceptable (this leads to rapid breakage of the sheets). It is allowed to straighten sheets by rolling between rollers.
Removing springs from a car
Removal of the front and rear springs is carried out in the same sequence. To do this you need to do the following:
1. Loosen the nuts of the stepladders.
2. Disconnect the lower end of the shock absorber.
3. Raise the front part of the car with a jack to remove the front springs or the rear part of the car to remove the rear springs so that the springs are unloaded.
4. Place technological stands of appropriate height under the raised part of the frame and lower the car onto them.
5. Evenly unscrew (in any order) the bolts of the front and rear spring bracket covers, remove the covers and lower rubber pads.
6. Unscrew the stepladder nuts and remove the stepladders.
7. Raise the car with a jack installed under the frame so that the ends of the springs come out of the brackets. Remove the spring. Remove the upper and thrust rubber pads from the brackets (if they are still there).
Disassembling springs
Before disassembling, clean the springs from dirt and determine their technical condition. If all parts are suitable for further use, then it is necessary to check the spring deflection in a free state. To do this, stretch a thread or thin wire along the end curves of the cups of the upper main sheet along the spring and measure the distance to the thread from the upper surface of the first main sheet at the center bolt, which should be:
- for the front spring no less than 140 mm;
- for rear spring no less than 160 mm.
Checking the spring deflection
Note
: — The difference in the deflection dimensions of springs of the same name installed on a vehicle should not exceed 10 mm. — If, as a result of the preliminary inspection, damage is found, the spring must be disassembled in the following order:
1. Clamp the spring in a vice in the immediate vicinity of the center bolt.
2. Unscrew the nuts of the clamp bolts, remove the bolts and remove the spacers.
3. Unscrew the nut of the center bolt and carefully release the vice (the sheets in the tightened spring are in a tense state), disassemble the spring.
4. Wash all spring leaves with Nefras, wipe and inspect for cracks. Broken or cracked sheets must be replaced.
5. Unfasten the loose rivets of the clamps and cups.
Spring assembly
1. Select the required set of sheets. Lubricate the surfaces of the sheets with graphite lubricant.
2. Assemble the sheets in the appropriate order and insert a technological rod, the diameter of which is equal to the diameter of the center bolt, into the hole under the center bolt.
Production of GAZelle-NEXT begins with a chassis, an onboard platform and a truck with an extended cab
GAZelle Next is truly a new car, although there is still continuity with the previous GAZelle, but it does not at all interfere with Gazelle’s progress. So, Western competitors rarely design a new car completely from scratch. It's expensive. The Next project is a line of several models: in 2013, a flatbed platform, a chassis for installing various superstructures, a car with a double cab, and an 18-seater bus with a frame body, that is, in the form of a superstructure on a chassis, will be put on the conveyor. The panel van and minibus will go into production later. In 2014, a completely unusual car for the GAZelle family will appear - with a gross weight of 5 tons. This heavy version of the GAZelle should not be confused with the Valdai - it has a completely different segment: a load capacity of about four tons and units from a medium-tonnage lawn. Already, 30 GAZelle Next are being produced daily, and mass production will begin in the summer. So far the planned proportion in relation to GAZelle-Business is 50 to 50, but it can easily change. The Gorky Automobile Plant has flexible production: a new robotic welding line was purchased for the cabins. Now, with virtually no retooling, it can be used to weld any cabins of conventional GAZelles and even GAZelle Next. A year ago I had a chance to visit the Mercedes-Benz plant in Dusseldorf, where the Sprinter and Volkswagen Krafter are made - believe me, our plant is no worse than the German one. The painting equipment at GAZ is the most modern, imported, in particular, cataphoretic priming has long been introduced - when the cabin or body is “soaked” in several baths with complete immersion, while the primer is applied by electrodeposition. There is no reason to suspect that Gazovites paint their cabins with a broom.
