Influence of Clearance on the Rocker Arm Pin on the Steerability and Stability of the Vehicle Motion
The article presents an analysis of the impact of a malfunction resulting from excessive clearance on the rocker arm pin of the front suspension on the vehicle’s steerability. The first part of the article presents an analysis of the influence of the clearance on the rocker arm pin on the geometry o...
