Suspension Components
The front suspension is designed to allow each wheel to adapt to different road surfaces independently. The wheels are mounted to hub/bearings units bolted to the steering knuckle. The double-row hub bearings are sealed and lubricated for life. The steering knuckles turn (pivot) on ball joints.
The front suspension is comprised of :
- Shock absorbers
- Torsion bar
- Control arms
- Steering knuckles
- Stabilizer bar
- Stabilizer link
- Tie Rod Ends
- Hub/Bearing
- Rack & Pinion
- Ball Joints
NOTE:
Components attached with a nut must be torqued to specification.
NOTE:
Suspension components with rubber/urethane bushings should be tightened with the vehicle at normal ride height. It is important to have the springs supporting the weight of the vehicle when the fasteners are torqued. If springs are not at their normal ride position, vehicle ride comfort could be affected and premature bushing wear may occur.
