ABSTRACT:
An improved vehicle sway control assembly designed to limit excessive side swaying of front engine rear axle driven motor vehicles during all driving conditions. The system utilizes two frame brackets (77), (97), one axle/spring bracket (129), and two rods (35), (67). The first rod (35) has one end attached to a frame bracket (77) and the other end to the axle/spring bracket (129). It incorporates a telescoping feature allowing the rod end nearest the frame bracket (77) to telescope. The second rod (67) is attached on the opposite side to a frame bracket (97) on one end and a mid section plate (34) on the telescoping rod (35) on the other end. The counter rotational arch of the second rod (67) will force the telescoping rod (35) to extend thus canceling the telescoping rod (35) arch curve travel if it were a solid rod. The overall design will limit axle (166) to frame (78) side movement while providing near straight vertical axle (166) travel.
