ABSTRACT:
A flexible link includes an elongated central portion formed from a flexible steel cable. First and second cylindrical heads are provided at the ends of the cable. The first head is inserted through an opening on a first suspension component so that the second head is adjacent the first component and retains the first component. The first head is then inserted into a complementary keyway on a second suspension component to secure the link. Tensile forces from the components are transferred and accommodated by the flexible central portion. The tensile force in the link keeps the heads in place and seated in both the first and second components.
