2892444 - Introduction - FRONT SUSPENSION
Indepedent suspension, McPherson type with forged steel track control arms anchored to an auxiliary crossmember giving optimum comfort and safe driving.The main elements of the front suspension are:
- coil springs greatly offset in relation to the shock absorber axis to reduce sliding friction. The springs rest on shims with rubber seals for preventing operating noise
- double acting hydraulic shock absorbers
- "cellasto" end of travel buffer with gradual intervention to improve comfort and gradual nature of response round bends
- cast iron track control arms hinged to the front crossmember by means of two flexible bushes (the rear one has hydraulic suspension)
- anti-roll bar connected to the shock absorber telescopic damper to increase sensitivity to vertical jolts from the suspension.
