Suspension - Rear: Description

The 240 series rear suspension consists of coil springs mounted between control arms and body rubber mounts. Shock absorbers are mounted between control arms and body. A stabilizer bar is attached to the control arms at both ends.

Two torque rods run forward from axle brackets and mount to frame. A track bar is attached behind, and parallel to, the axle housing. The bar is connected between the axle housing and the body bracket.
