TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS TABLE

The front suspension consists of the following components

  1. Wheel bearings
  2. Wheel hubs
  3. Wheel studs
  4. Front and rear lower arms
  5. Upper arms
  6. Stabilizer bar
  7. Stabilizer bar bushings
  8. Stabilizer bar links
  9. Shock and spring assemblies
  10. Wheel knuckles

The front suspension is an independent suspension design. This front suspension uses 3 parallel arms (one upper arm and 2 lower arms). Each arm has a mounting position to the chassis and a ball joint attachment at the wheel knuckle. The shock absorber mounts to the lower arm and along with the spring, controls vertical movement. A stabilizer bar and links are included to control suspension lean/sway during turns. The multiple arm design allows for carefully controlled motion of the wheel throughout suspension travel, controlling such parameters as camber angle, caster angle and toe.
