Spirited performance with very efficient cruising operation are provided
by the combination
of 4 speed overdrive gearing, a torque clutch, with a -
3.71:l final drive on the ETC and a viscous torque converter clutch with a a
3.1 1:l final drive ratio on the Eldorado.
Front Suspension
..
Your fully independent front suspension is a combination strut and spring
design. The frame is isolated from the body with
six rubber mounts.
Rubber bushings are used at the lower control arm pivots. The upper end
of the strut is isolated by a rubber mount which contains a bearing to
allow for wheel turning. The Road Sensing Suspension will automatically
controls the damping rate
of the struts.
The lower end
of the steering knuckle pivots on a ball joint riveted to the
control arm. The ball joint is connected to the steering knuckle with a
castellated nut and cotter pin.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The suspension system also incorporates a new damping system known as
Road Sensing Suspension. This system control the damping forces in the
shock absorbers and struts,
in response to various road and driving
conditions. The systems are capable of making these damping changes
extremely fast.
A computer receives inputs from vertical acceleration sensors, wheel to
body position sensors, vehicle speed sensor,
lift and dive signals. This
computer evaluates the inputs from these sensors,
to control the damping
of each of the struts and shocks independently
to provide varied levels of
suspension control.
The system also has the capability of providing Speed Sensitive Ste\
ering
control. This system changes your steering effort based
on your vehicle speed.
This system varies the amount of steering effort proportionate to your
vehicle speed. Steering
is easier at a lower speed for increased
maneuverability and parking ease.
As your vehicle speed increases, the
steering effort
is also increased to provide a manual like steering feel for
maximum control and enhanced vehicle stability.

The power rack and pinion..stee&g .gstem--h,w, a ,rotaq- spool valve which
directs hydraulic fluid coming from the power steering pump .to one side or
the other
side of the rack piston. The integral rack.piston is attached to the
rack. The rack piston converts hydraulic pressure to a linear force which
moves the rack4eft or right.
The force is then transmitted through the
inner and outer tie rods to the steering
.. knuckles, , which turn the wheels
If hydraulic assist is not available, manual conirol, is ‘maintained. However
under these, conditions. more steering effort is required.
