I don't know what a lot of the undercarriage parts look like. Has anyone put together a series of photos that the show all of the different suspension and steering parts?

We have it in the tech area, but we're working on making it more user friendly. So I just posted the one from my PB account..

This is how it works on the XJ's...
Steering
Pitman Arm: transfers the movement of the steering box into side to side motion.
Drag Link: transfers the movement of the Pitman Arm to the steering knuckle.
Tie Rod: Ties both steering knuckles together.
Suspension
Upper Control Arms (UCA's): Attach and locate the axle
Lower Control Arms (LCA's): Same.
Sway Bar Link Pins: Attach the axle housing to the Sway Bar (or Anti-roll Bar) to limit body roll.
Trackbar
Locates the axle in the center of the vehicle from left to right.
