CAUTION
It is extremely important upon reconnection of
the rods that the proper clearance height
between the axle and body be maintained.
Otherwise, the rubber bushings in radius rod
ends will become preloaded, thus reducing
their life span.
2.4 SWAY BAR
A sway bar is provided on the front axle to increase vehicle stability. It controls lateral motion (swaying
movement) of the vehicle (Fig. 10).
