FRONT SUSPENSION SYSTEM


  1. CONSTRUCTION


    1. A separate input construction type suspension upper support is used. This construction transmits only the inputs from the shock absorber assembly and the front spring bumper to the body via the suspension support sub-assembly. Thus, the suspension upper support achieves superior quietness and ride comfort performance.


      1. The input is transmitted from the front coil spring to the body via the strut mounting bearing.

      2. Because the front suspension support sub-assembly receives no input from the front coil spring, the rubber can be softened, thus achieving superior quietness and ride comfort.

      3. Through the use of urethane, the front spring bumper has been given a nonlinear stiffness characteristic (the bumper becomes progressively stiffer during operation), thus both ensuring rolling rigidity during steering and achieving ride comfort.

    2. A dust cover which is fixed on its upper and lower sides is used to prevent the shock absorber sliding portions from becoming dirty.
