Trunion

“Trunion,” primarily a British term, refers to a mechanical pivot situated at the lower end of the suspension wheel upright. It serves a similar function to the kingpin in the suspension system of a vehicle. This component facilitates the movement and rotation of the wheel assembly, allowing for steering and suspension articulation. The trunion is a crucial part of the vehicle’s suspension system, contributing to its stability, maneuverability, and overall performance.
