type system. Major components of the suspension system are:

BALL JOINTS – Connects geared hub to control arms, and allows change of angle between geared
hub and control arms during suspension movement.
D
GEARED HUB – Serves as a mounting point for wheel and tire assembly and provides 1.92:1 gear
reduction to increase torque to wheel and tire assembly.
C
STABILIZER BAR (FRONT ONLY) – Prevents vehicle sway when cornering.
E
LOWER CONTROL ARM – Connects geared hub to frame rail.
F
SHOCK ABSORBER – Dampens suspension movement and limits amount of suspension travel.
