2. Wheel stud - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_stud

   One motivation for using lug bolts instead of wheel studs and nuts the number of parts that needs to be attached to the wheel hub. Wheel studs and lug nuts consist of two parts, while the lug bolt is a single part. This leads to one less part when using lug bolts, which can save manufacturing costs.

3. Spindle (automobile) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spindle_(automobile)

   In an automobile, the wheel spindle, sometimes called simply the spindle, is the part of the suspension system that carries the hub for the wheel and attaches to the upper and lower control arms. Spindles are carried by steering knuckles or "uprights". [ 1 ]

4. Steering knuckle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steering_knuckle

   The wheel and tire assembly attach to the hub or spindle of the knuckle where the tire/wheel rotates while being held in a stable plane of motion by the knuckle/suspension assembly. In the attached photograph of a double-wishbone suspension, the knuckle is shown attached to the upper control arm at the top and the lower control arm at the bottom.

5. Car suspension - Wikipedia

   The wheel rate is calculated by taking the square of the ratio (0.5625) times the spring rate, thus obtaining 281.25 lbs/inch (49.25 N/mm). The ratio is squared because it has two effects on the wheel rate: it applies to both the force and the distance traveled. Wheel rate on independent suspension is fairly straightforward.

6. Control arm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_arm

   In automotive suspension, a control arm, also known as an A-arm, is a hinged suspension link between the chassis and the suspension upright or hub that carries the wheel. In simple terms, it governs a wheel's vertical travel, allowing it to move up or down when driving over bumps, into potholes, or otherwise reacting to the irregularities of a ...
