2. 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 ...

3. 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.

   Skirt guard or coatguard: a device fitted over the rear wheel of a bicycle to prevent a long skirt, coat or other trailing clothes or luggage from catching in the wheel, or in the gap between the rim and the brakes; Spindle: an axle around which a pedal rotates; threaded at one end to screw into crank arms; Spoke: connects wheel rim to hub ...

5. Multi-link suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-link_suspension

   The arms have to control camber, particularly the way that the camber changes as the wheel moves up (into jounce, or bump) and down into rebound or droop. Side view: The arms have to transmit traction and braking loads, usually accomplished via a longitudinal link. They also have to control caster. Note that brake torques also have to be ...

6. Car suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car_suspension

   Because the wheels are not constrained to remain perpendicular to a flat road surface in turning, braking, and varying load conditions, control of the wheel camber is an important issue. Swinging-arm was common in small cars that were sprung softly, and could carry large loads, because the camber is independent of load.

7. Independent suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_suspension

   In automobiles, a double wishbone suspension is an independent suspension design using two (occasionally parallel) wishbone-shaped arms to locate the wheel. Each wishbone or arm has two mounting points to the chassis and one joint at the knuckle. The shock absorber and coil spring mount to the wishbones to control vertical movement.
