Toe links
-
Upper arms

Lower arm vertical links

The
rear suspension uses 2 parallel arms (1 upper and 1 lower). 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 lower arm and along with the spring, controls vertical movement. The
stabilizer bar and links control suspension lean and/or sway.
