Stabilizer Link Functionality
This stabilizer bar serves an imperative role in balancing the left and right wheels of independent suspension systems. It corrects any imbalance caused by varying road conditions, ensuring the wheels move in harmony. By converting the up-and-down movements caused by differences in wheel height into torsion energy, you can maintain wheel balance, prevent tilting, and reduce vibrations. One end of the stabilizer control link is attached to the stabilizer, while the other end to the car body, typically to the damper, making this control link longer than standard ones.
Stabilizer Link Structure
Stabilizing bars use connecting rods with linkage devices on each end to connect and secure the bar to the body of the vehicle. For the connecting devices, there are two types: those with ball joints on both sides and those with a rubber bush on one side. The ball joint type has a resin ball seat inside a housing welded to the connecting rod. A special synthetic grease is inserted between the ball stud and the ball seat to prevent friction. The housing is crimped with a plug on one side to prevent grease leakage and invasion, and a dust cover filled with grease is assembled on the opposite side. The ball stud comes equipped with two flat sizes, a hexagon or a hex hole, for assembly and disassembly.
