Components of the Suspension System


  1. Control Arm: A movable lever that fastens the steering knuckle to the frame of the vehicle.

  2. Control Arm Busing: This is a sleeve which allows the control arm to move up and down on the frame.

  3. Strut Rod: Prevents the control arm from swinging forward and backwards.

  4. Ball Joints: A joint that allows the control arm and steering knuckle to move up and down and sideways as well

  5. Shock absorbers or Struts: prevents the suspension from bounce after spring compression and extension

  6. Stabilizer Bar: Limits body roll of the vehicle during cornering

  7. Spring: Supports the weight of the vehicle
