Torque Rod Bolt & Nut 88.2400

A Torque Rod Bolt & Nut refers to the fastening components used in the torque rod assembly of a vehicle's suspension system. Torque rods are crucial parts of the suspension, especially in heavy-duty trucks, trailers, and off-road vehicles. They help manage the forces between the frame and axle, ensuring proper alignment and preventing excessive movement.

Torque Rod:

The torque rod itself is a suspension component designed to resist the twisting forces (torque) that are generated during vehicle movement. It connects the axle to the vehicle’s chassis or frame, ensuring that the axle remains properly aligned and doesn’t rotate too much or shift under load.

Torque Rod Bolt & Nut:

• The bolt is used to secure the torque rod to the frame or axle. It is typically a heavy-duty, high-strength bolt designed to handle the significant forces involved in the suspension system.
• The nut is used to tighten the bolt in place, securing the connection. It is often a locking nut or a high-torque nut designed to prevent loosening under heavy use.
