2. Trailer stability assist - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trailer_stability_assist

   Trailer Stability Assist (TSA), also known as Electronic Trailer Sway Control, [1] is designed to control individual wheel slip to correct potential trailer swing before there is an accident. [2] Although similar to Electronic Stability Control (ESC), TSA is programmed differently and is designed to detect yaw in the tow-vehicle and take ...

3. Tie rod - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tie_rod

   A tie rod or tie bar (also known as a hanger rod if vertical) is a slender structural unit used as a tie and (in most applications) capable of carrying tensile loads only. It is any rod or bar-shaped structural member designed to prevent the separation of two parts, as in a vehicle. Tie rods and anchor plates in the ruins of Coventry Cathedral

4. Caravan (trailer) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caravan_(trailer)

   A fifth-wheel trailer tows more securely than a traditional travel trailer because the hitch weight sits directly over the pickup truck's rear axle or tires. Since part of a fifth wheel sits in the bed of the pickup, it reduces the overall length of the vehicle-and-trailer combination while allowing the same room as a comparable-length travel ...

5. Lower tie bar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lower_tie_bar

   The lower tie bar is a bolt-on device and no stock parts will have to be replaced or removed when it is being installed on the vehicle (unless the vehicle already has one on it). These characteristics make the lower tie bar a popular performance upgrade among car tuning enthusiasts for its appearance and slight performance gain.

6. Tie (engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tie_(engineering)

   A hurricane tie used to fasten a rafter to a stud. A tie, strap, tie rod, eyebar, guy-wire, suspension cables, or wire ropes, are examples of linear structural components designed to resist tension. [1] It is the opposite of a strut or column, which is designed to resist compression. Ties may be made of any tension resisting material.

7. Rail fastening system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rail_fastening_system

   The top surface of the plate has one or two shoulders that fit against the edges of the base of the rail. The double-shoulder type is currently used. Older single-shoulder types were adaptable for various rail widths, with the single shoulder positioned on the outside (field side) of the rails.

8. Oshkosh TAK-4 Independent Suspension System - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oshkosh_TAK-4_Independent...

   The double-wishbone suspension can also be referred to as ‘double A-arm,’ though the arms themselves can be A-shaped, L-shaped, or even a single bar linkage. The complete TAK-4 independent suspension system set-up also includes a subframe which contains the axle differential, half shafts, and wheel ends with steering attachments and brakes.

9. Whippletree (mechanism) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whippletree_(mechanism)

   The tree provides distributed mechanical support, reducing localised mechanical deflections, which in turn reduces optical distortion. [4] Unlike the applications described above, which are two-dimensional, the whippletrees in telescope mirror support cells are three-dimensional designs, [ 5 ] since the tree must support multiple points over an ...
