DRIVE
February 8, 2024
The adjustable control arm includes a rod end having a first bushing, and an arm body having a second bushing. The rod end is connected to a sub-frame assembly of a vehicle through the first bushing. The arm body is connected to a knuckle of a wheel assembly of the vehicle through the second bushing. The control arm includes an adjuster for receiving the rod end. The control arm includes a ball configured on a bracket or a slider assembly. The ball remains disposed equidistance from the rod end and the arm body irrespective of the movement of the adjuster. The ball is operationally connected to a height sensor assembly of the vehicle, and the adjuster is adjusted to vary a particular suspension angle (Camber angle), length of the control arm without affecting the distance between the height sensor assembly of the vehicle and the ball on the control arm.
