Shock Absorber
Technical Details: Shock absorbers are hydraulic devices that dampen the impact and vibrations from the road.
Importance: They ensure a smooth ride and help maintain tire contact with the road, improving control and handling.
Control Arms
Technical Details: Control arms connect the wheel hub to the vehicle’s frame, allowing the wheels to move up and down.
Importance: They are essential for maintaining the proper alignment of the wheels and for suspension movement.
Ball Joints
Technical Details: Ball joints are pivot points that connect the control arms to the steering knuckles.
Importance: They allow smooth movement of the suspension and steering, ensuring precise vehicle handling.
Tie Rods
Technical Details: Tie rods connect the steering rack to the wheels, transmitting the steering force to turn the wheels.
Importance: They are crucial for accurate steering and vehicle alignment.
Sway Bar Links
Technical Details: Sway bar links connect the sway bar to the suspension, reducing body roll during cornering.
Importance: They help improve stability and handling when the vehicle makes sharp turns.
Axles
Technical Details: Axles transmit power from the transmission to the wheels, allowing the vehicle to move.
Importance: They are key components in driving the wheels and bearing the weight of the vehicle.
CV Joints
Technical Details: CV (constant velocity) joints are flexible joints that transmit power to the wheels at a constant speed.
Importance: They ensure smooth and efficient power transfer to the wheels, even when the suspension is in motion.
Bushes
Technical Details: Bushes are rubber or polyurethane components that absorb vibrations between the suspension parts and the vehicle frame.
Importance: They reduce noise, vibrations, and harshness in the ride, enhancing comfort.
Shock & Strut Mounts
Technical Details: These mounts connect the shock absorbers or struts to the vehicle body.
Importance: They help isolate road shocks and vibrations, ensuring a smooth ride.
