symmetrical linkage. This COM
bines with the all anti-friction-
bearing type steering gear as
sembly and gives lower over
all steering ratio of 25.3 to l.
MIR. Smead said the new link
type stabilizer is a three-piece
design which reduces car tilt on
turns and helps keep the car on
an even keel on all roads.
Ford engineers point out that
there has been no basic change
In the king-pin suspension design
for the past 20 years and it still
is used in most cars today. In
the 1854 Ford, this old type of
suspension has been replaced
with simple, ball-joint system.
The ball-jointS at each end of a
one-piece spindle-support arm
are attached to an upper and
lower control arm. The distance
between ball-joints is greater
than the distance between king
pin bearings in the older-type
suspensions and the result is re-
duced bearing loads and decreas-
ed friction, making steering
easier.
The ball-joints have specially
shaped seats so they can't bind
and are completely sealed SO
water and dirt cannot get in.
Spring-loaded, they compensate
automatically for any wear and
give the right amount of friction
to make handling easier.
Large rubber bushings in the
upper and lower control arm
bearings eliminate wear and
help insulate the car frame from
road shock. The front wheels
can be accurately aligned by the
use of ShimS at the mounting
bolts of the upper control arms
much simpler method than in
older suspensions.
Another feature of the ball
joint suspension is that longer
life is assured by the elimination
Of II wearing points six on
each side of the suspension =
and the elimination of II lubri-
cation fittings in the ball-joint
suspension system, reducing the
number of fittings from 16 to
only 4 points.
Other factors contributing to
the 1854 Ford's greatly improved
ride include:
New shock absorbers, both
front and rear, which give more
complete control, especially on
rough roads.
New 5-leaf rear springs have
inserts between the tips of all
leaves to control friction for
smooth, uniform riding quality
on smooth streets or back roads.
These inserts, together with rub
ber bushings at the shackles and
brackets eliminate the need for
any fabrication at the rear sus-
pension.
New engine mounts which in
clude an unusual steady rest"
through which the engine is at
tached to the front cross-mem-
ber in rubber mounting. This
contributes to a smoother ride
with reduced engine vibration.
And the new front stabilizer
which is attached far out on the
lower control arms of the front
suspension where its action is
more effective, 1t contributes to
easier handling of the car on
rough roads and sharp turns.
The new 1854 FordS also have
a new frame with five cross
members including the K-bar,
which provides extra twist re-
sistance. Improved brakes have
stronger mountings and new
heavier shoes, making stops
smoother and brakes last longer
than in previous models.
