Rear Suspension

UPPER CONTROL ARM
An upper control arm is attached to the top of each rear knuckle, connecting the knuckle to the rear suspension crossmember. The attachment of the upper control arm to the knuckle is achieved through a ball joint in the upper control arm. The ball joint is pressed into the upper control arm and is attached to the knuckle using a tapered stud and a castle nut.

The upper control arm is bolted to the rear suspension crossmember using a pivot bar which is rubber isolated from the upper control arm.

The upper control arms have rubber bushings at the rear suspension crossmember end and a ball joint at the rear knuckle.
