Rear Suspension
Rear SuspensionThe rear suspension consists of the following components:
^ Upper arms
^ Forward and rearward lower arms
^ Stabilizer bar and links
^ Shock absorbers
^ Wheel knuckles
^ Wheel spindles
^ Wheel hubs
^ Wheel bearings
^ Coil springs
The rear suspension uses 3 parallel arms (one upper and 2 lowers). Each arm has a mounting position to the chassis and an attachment at the wheel knuckle.
This suspension allows the wheels to react to road imperfections independent of each other. The shock absorber mounts to the wheel knuckle and along with the spring, controls vertical movement. A stabilizer bar and links are included to control suspension lean/sway.
