Push-rods can offer greater stability over pull-rod systems in certain scenarios. Pull-rod suspension: Pull-rods go higher on the wheel and lower on the chassis.
In very simple words, a push-rod uses a carbon- fibre rod to push and activate the rocker (that acts like the spring and damper) . The pull-rod is the opposite as the rod pulls on the rocker.
That rod which connects the top of the wheel to the torsion spring is called the ‘pull-rod’ or ‘push-rod’. That’s because the rod can be fixed to ‘pull’ or ‘push’ that spring.
“Push-rod and pull-rod on the front has pros and cons on both. The pull-rod is probably harder to get light and stiff, but it is probably a bit easier to get aerodynamic performance from it.
Ferrari technical director James Allison says the Scuderia opted to stick with pull-rod suspension in 2015 as it didn’t warrant development in that area. The Italian team brought the design back ...
