Coil springs
-
Upper and lower arms
-
Shock absorbers
-
Stabilizer bar and links
-
Wheel bearing and wheel hub assemblies

The
rear suspension uses 2 parallel arms (1 upper and 1 lower). Each arm
has a mounting position to the differential carrier and an attachment at

the lower arm and along with the spring, controls vertical movement. The
stabilizer bar and links control suspension lean/sway.
