CRIMP RING AND STABILIZER BAR ASSEMBLY.

摘要

A stabilizer bar includes at least one bushing that is adapted for mounting to a vehicle structure. A crimp ring is secured to the stabilizer bar to prevent relative axial movement between the bushing and the stabilizer bar. The crimp ring initially has a horse-shoe or C-shape that allows the crimp ring to be easily slid onto the stabilizer bar right next to the bushing. The crimp ring is then deformed around the stabilizer bar to permanently secure the crimp ring to the stabilizer bar.
