Stabilizer, rear axle, under frame
Details & Technology
The stabilizer is fitted behind the axle and attached at two points to the axle tube and at two
points to the frame. It is a torsion bar made of spring steel and is fitted transversely to the
direction of travel and parallel to the axle. It only exerts its stabilizing effect under unilateral
compression. If there is equal compression on both sides, the stabilizer has no effect.
Benefits & Arguments
• Reduces roll
• Improved road holding even with an unequally distributed load
The stabilizer reduces roll which can occur for example when cornering with a load which has
a high center of gravity or when the rear axle load is unequally distributed.
Remarks
Generally recommended on bodies with a high center of gravity/tall bodies.
This Code cannot be ordered individually.
