[Stabilizer bar Front subframe Vibration damper (if equipped) wlalsialalelolry [Stabilizer bar clamp and bushing assembly 10 [Stabilizer bar link it [Shock absorber wiring harness ‘Ttem 1; Shock absorber and spring assembly Continuous damping control shock absorbers provide dynamic front suspension. A continuous damping control shock absorber creates a damping force which depends on the velocity of the vehicle and an electrical current applied to the continuous damping control shock absorber. The electronic stability program (ESP) sensors, acceleration sensors and displacement sensors provide information to the dynamic suspension electronic control unit (ECU), which detects the state of heave, roll, pitch, cornering and acceleration of the vehicle. The ECU then calculates the best damping characteristics for each wheel within 2 ms. The ECU sends an individual electrical current to each shock absorber to control the amount of damping requiredees ee Removal and Installation Special Tool(s [204-348 _ oF Remover/Installer, Wheel Hub/Wheel Bearing <‘\ [204-348/3 Remover/Installer, Wheel Hub/Wheel Bearing] 204-348-018 |Adapter for 204-348 [205-074 Installer, Differential Bearing Cone [205-332 Protector, Axle Shaft Removal NOTE: Removal steps in this procedure may contain installation details, 1.
