A. Dimension of Lower Control arm This load is constituted by spring, axle and lower control arm.
While stub axle of the wheel takes 50% of the total load acting
on each wheel.
Therefore, force acting on the front axle of wheel is given by,
F= 1721.6 N
Following line diagram is a representation of the spring, axle,
and lower arm.
