The Four-Wheel Drive(4WD) front suspension consists of the following components:
- Lower ball joints
- Lower control arms
- Ride height sensors (Vehicles with Continuously Controlled Damping (CCD) Suspension)
- Shock absorber and coil spring assemblies
- Stabilizer bar and links
- Upper control arms
- Wheel bearing and wheel hubs
- Wheel knuckles
- Wheel studs
The vehicle is equipped with a front coil spring suspension. This independent-type front suspension utilizes a stabilizer bar to aid in vehicle stability. The wheel hub and wheel bearing are sealed units and are serviced as an assembly. The lower ball joints can be serviced independently from the lower arms.
The vehicle has available Continuously Controlled Damping (CCD) Suspension. The system allows the user to customize the ride with Comfort, Normal and Sport modes. Sensors constantly monitor the vehicle's suspension motion, body movement, steering and braking.
