Abstract
A link assembly for coupling a longitudinal arm to a mounting location of a vehicle is provided. The link assembly includes a link body, a first attachment member, a second attachment member, a first bushing assembly, and a second bushing assembly. The first attachment member is disposed in the link body and defines a first axis. The second attachment member is disposed in the link body and defines a second axis. The first bushing assembly is disposed in the link body and supports the first attachment member in the link body. The second bushing assembly is disposed in the link body and supports the second attachment member in the link body. The first axis of the first attachment member is spaced from the second axis of the second attachment member by an off-set distance and the first axis and second axis extend in different, non-parallel directions.
