2. Bump steer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bump_steer

   Bump steer can be adjusted by moving any of the front suspension components pickup points Up, down, in or out. For example: Say the inner tie rod mounting point is moved up either by moving the rack or modifying the pitman arm mounting point or arm drop. The result is the tie rod's arc will change.

3. Anti-roll bar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-roll_bar

   The stiffness of an anti-roll bar is proportional to the stiffness of the material, the fourth power of its radius, and the inverse of the length of the lever arms (i.e., the shorter the lever arm, the stiffer the bar). Stiffness is also related to the geometry of the mounting points and the rigidity of the bar's mounting points.

4. Multi-link suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-link_suspension

   Consequently, they react to loads along their own length, in tension and compression, but not in bending. Some multi-links do use a trailing arm, control arm or wishbone, which has two bushings at one end. On a front suspension one of the lateral arms is replaced by the tie-rod, which connects the rack or steering box to the wheel hub.

5. Steering knuckle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steering_knuckle

   In a drive suspension, the knuckle has no spindle, but rather has a hub into which is affixed the bearings and shaft of the drive mechanism. The end of the drive mechanism would then have the necessary mounting studs for the wheel/tire and/or brake assembly. Therefore, the wheel assembly would rotate as the drive shaft (or half-shaft) dictates.

6. Subframe - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subframe

   A perimeter frame with full support, which supports the lower control arms, steering rack, engine, transmission, and possibly the full suspension, commonly used in front-wheel-drive cars. Subframes are typically made of pressed steel panels that are thicker than body shell panels and are welded or spot-welded together.

7. Torque steer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_steer

   Check the Control arm bushings. The driver will experience torque steer when accelerating because of worn out control-arm bushings. Rear-wheel-drive vehicles still are affected by torque steer in the sense that any of the above situations will still apply a steering moment to the car (though from the rear wheels instead of the front).
