Front Suspension

The front suspension is a combination strut and spring design. The control arms pivot from the suspension support. Conventional rubber bushings are used for the lower control arm pivots. The upper end of the strut is isolated by a rubber mount and contains a bearing to allow for wheel turning.

The lower end of the steering knuckle pivots on a ball joint riveted to the control arm. The ball joint is fastened to the steering knuckle with a castellated nut and cotter pin.
