German term

Schwertlenkerbuchse

German to English Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks wheel suspension
This is a wheel suspension component and it's neither in the Ernst nor in the Wyhlidal.

Does anyone know the English translation for it?

Thanks in advance,

Antje

Kann es sein, dass "Schwertlenkerbuchse" ein Tipp- oder Scanfehler f�r "Schwertlenker*a*chse" ist?

control blade [suspension link] bushing

Schwertlenker-Hinterachse is the control blade suspension in e.g. the new Ford Focus. Lenker are control arms or links, and Buchse is bushing. No Googles though, neither in German nor in English.

agree Steffen Walter : Kann es sein, dass "Schwertlenkerbuchse" ein Tipp- oder Scanfehler für "Schwertlenkerachse" ist? // ADD: Ist ein schlüssiges Argument.

Glaub' ich nicht. Ein "Lenker" ist ja beweglich angeschlagen, und dazu dient in der Regel eine Buchse. Ohne diese Achse jetzt im Detail zu kennen, erscheint mir der Begriff sofort plausibel.
agree Dr. Fred Thomson : Makes more sense than my feeble attempt.
