  2. Watt's linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watt's_linkage

    Both methods are intended to prevent relative sideways motion between the axle and body of the car. Watt's linkage approximates a vertical straight-line motion much more closely, and it does so while consistently locating the centre of the axle at the vehicle's longitudinal centreline, rather than toward one side of the vehicle as would be the ...

  3. List of auto parts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_auto_parts

    This is a list of auto parts, which are manufactured components of automobiles. This list reflects both fossil-fueled cars (using internal combustion engines) and electric vehicles; the list is not exhaustive. Many of these parts are also used on other motor vehicles such as trucks and buses.

  4. Car suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car_suspension

    A luxury car, taxi, or passenger bus would be described as having soft springs, for the comfort of their passengers or driver. Vehicles with worn-out or damaged springs ride lower to the ground, which reduces the overall amount of compression available to the suspension, and increases the amount of body lean.

  5. Anti-roll bar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-roll_bar

    An anti-sway or anti-roll bar is intended to reduce the lateral tilt (roll) of the vehicle on curves, sharp corners, or large bumps. Although there are many variations in design, the object is to induce a vehicle's body to remain as level as possible by forcing the opposite wheel's shock absorber , spring, or suspension rod in the same ...

  6. Multi-link suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-link_suspension

    Multi-link suspension allows the auto designer the ability to incorporate both good ride and good handling in the same vehicle.. In its simplest form, the multi-link suspension is orthogonal—i.e., it is possible to alter one parameter in the suspension at a time without affecting anything else.

  7. Panhard rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panhard_rod

    The Panhard rod is a simple device designed to prevent lateral movement. [2] It consists of a rigid bar running sideways in the same plane as the axle, connecting one end of the axle to the car body or chassis on the opposite side of the vehicle. The bar attaches on either end with pivots that let it swivel upwards and downwards only, limiting ...

  8. Independent suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_suspension

    A multi-link type rear independent suspension on an AWD car. The anti-roll bar has some yellow paint on it. The anti-roll bar has some yellow paint on it. Independent suspension is any automobile suspension system that allows each wheel on the same axle to move vertically (i.e. reacting to a bump on the road) independently of the others.
