Suspension Strut / Shock Absorber: Description and Operation
Front
The front suspension of the vehicle is supported by coil springs positioned around the strut assembly. The springs are contained between an upper seat,
located just below the top strut mount assembly and a lower spring seat on the strut fluid reservoir.
The top of each strut assembly is bolted to the upper fender reinforcement (strut tower) through a rubber isolated mount.
The bottom of the strut assembly attaches to the steering knuckle with two through bolts. Caster is a fixed setting on all vehicles and is not adjustable
when an alignment is performed. In the event the camber setting on a vehicle requires adjustment, a service strut is available which will provide a method
by which the camber can be adjusted.
The strut assemblies on this vehicle are inter-connected by the front stabilizer bar through 2 link assemblies attaching the struts to the stabilizer bar.
