The Ford spring design tends to prevent the body from tilting on uneven roads. Cor- ners can be taken safely at rela- tively high speeds, >| Both front and rear springs are placed crosswise. This transverse design permits free and easy ac- tion of all four wheels because the springs are attached to the axles at their outer flexible tips. This type of construction retains the important advantages of the solid axle and yet minimizes road shocks transmitted to the Sram and body because the shocks are! absorbed first by the most sensi- tive part of the spring.
