The front suspension is a combination strut and spring design, with control arms which pivot from the engine frame. The frame has isolation mounts to the body and conventional rubber bushings are used for 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 lower end of the steering knuckle pivots on a ball joint riveted to the control arm. The ball joint is fastened to the knuckle with a castellated nut and cotter pin.
