CONSTRUCTION

REAR ARM
- Acts mainly on longitudinal loads.
- The rear arm bears the rear brake system and rear axle bearing unit.

FRONT LINK
- Acts on lateral loads.
- The link is made of steel pressed in a "U" section form, and the left and right ends of the link are connected to the rear sub frame and rear arm through rubber bushings.

REAR LINK




- Acts on lateral loads.
- The link is made of steel pressed in a "U" section form, and the link is connected to the rear sub frame and rear arm.
- A toe-in adjustment mechanism, which uses eccentric bolts, is provided at the joint between the rear link and rear sub frame.

UPPER LINK




- Acts on lateral loads.
- The left and right ends of the link are connected to the rear sub frame and rear arm through rubber bushings.
- This also supports the helper and prevents bottoming of the suspension.

SHOCK ABSORBER
- Acts on vertical loads together with the coil spring.
- The shock absorber is a cylindrical double-acting low pressure gas filled type and it attenuates shock from the road surface.

STABILIZER




- The solid round rod stabilizer is attached to the rear sub frame through rubber bushings and its right and left ends are connected to the rear arm through ball joints of the stabilizer link.
- The attitude change of the vehicle during a turn is controlled by the bar's torsional resistance.

HELPER




- The helper acts as a bump stopper together with the upper link by limiting the shock absorber stroke when the vehicle encounters a bump.

SUB FRAME SUPPORT ARM




- Made of steel pipe whose both ends fixed to the rear arm bracket and rear sub frame.
- Restricts the twist between the rear sub frame and vehicle body.
