The front suspension is a strut-type independent sus-
pension, with cylindrical double-acting oil damper and
coil spring .
The top of the strut CP is mounted on the body through
the cushion rubber, which has resulted in elimination of
any vibration by combined use of other rubbers to
improve passenger comfort . This type also maintains a
wide distance between the upper and lower supporting
points and makes adjustment of the caster unneces-
sary .
The stabilizer is mounted through the subframe . The
upper and lower ends of the stabilizer are connected to
the strut assembly by stabilizer links .
The front subframe supports the lower arm and
engine . It is installed on the car body via four bushings
to effectively dampen vibration and noise conveyed
from the engine and road surfaces .
