About Wheel Hub Carriers
A Saab wheel hub carrier is mounted to the suspension and steering system and as its name suggests it holds or carries the hub assembly. The hub carrier is able to move up and down with the suspension, and also to move left and right allowing the front wheels to steer via movement of the steering gear.
The hub carrier is generally attached to the suspension using ball joints which allow it to move up and down freely as the car travels over the ground. The steering gear is linked to the carrier with a steering arm, also connected using ball joints to allow flexibility as the suspension moves up and down.
A Saab wheel hub carrier is cast piece of solid metal so generally very strong and robust, and as it has no moving parts is generally very reliable. However, a light impact such as hitting a curb can bend or deform the carrier, causing misalignment of the wheel hub assembly.
Additionally the connecting ball joints for the suspension and steering are prone to wear and will likely need to be replaced over time.
Saab trivia
- There was lots of controversy over the Saab 93 in Sweden. Not so much the car itself, but the marketing for the vehicle clearly showed a young couple in bed together, but the woman wasn't wearing a wedding ring. Complaints poured in from shocked Swedes, and Saab hastily added a wedding ring.
- If you were buying yourself a Saab before 1952, you had the colour choices of green, green, and… green. It wasn't until 1952 that Saab started offering other colours for car buyers.
- The Monte Carlo Rally is always a big deal, but the first Saab to win the event was in 1929, with a Swedish-born woman behind the wheel. Greta Molander went to take the Ladies Cup in a Saab in 1952.
- The Saab 92 was the first production car to put the petrol tank in between the rear wheels. They did this to improve driver safety, and it helped with balance too.
- After the death of James Bond creator and writer Ian Fleming, the writer James Gardner took over writing duties for the super spy. He immediately had Bond driving a Saab 900 Turbo, and Saab even built a replica of the 'Silver Beast' which can still be seen in the Saab Car Museum.
