ABSTRACT:
A method for improving the stability of steering of a motor vehicle equipped with radius members resiliently attached at one end thereof to the frame or body of a vehicle and at another end thereof to a vertically movable part of a suspension assembly of the vehicle, and a device for use according to the method. A flexible spacer of material such as laminated cloth impregnated with a tough rubber-like material is placed between a bushing surrounding a radius member and a restraining device holding the bushing on a radius member, permitting the bushing to be compressed axially along the radius member, thus reducing the amount of freedom of motion of the radius member in a direction generally longitudinal of the vehicle, without the necessity to remove and replace the entire bushing with a new one. The flexible spacer is ordinarily of an annular flat washer shape permitting the bushing to be compressed axially by the fasteners normally used to hold the bushings in place at the point of attachment of an end of a radius member to the body or frame of the motor vehicle.
