Each frontwheel is suspended with the shockabsorber strut mounted in a permanently lubricated ball joint, and has a transverse control arm attached to a reinforsing crossmember.
Front wheel spring is effected through an adjusable, longitudal torsion barat each wheel. Complementing the springing is a progressively-acting rubber buffer installedin each of the two double-action hydralic shock absorber struds. The cornering qualities are further enhanced by a transverse stabilizer which is connected to the suspension component of both front wheels through levers and scackels.

The steering is of the rack-and-pinion type.
The steering rack rides in a replaceble bushing installed at each outer end of the housing. A floating pinion carrier, locatedin the housing, supports the pinion which turns in two ballk bearings. The steering pinion presses against the steering rack through a pressure block, spring and adjustiong nut. This results in play-free steering action. A certain amount of torque drag i the steering pinion is obtained in the steering adjustment nut in the housing.
The steering gear assembly requires no maintenance, and is filled with a special, permanent lubricant at the time of manufacture.
