## NHTSA's summary

Product Improvement: Introduction of M20 fixing bolts for wheel\-suspension arm joints Van Hool is recently using a M20 assembly bolt for securing the suspension arms to the steering knuckle carrier/hub carrier. The M20 assembly bolt allows for an increased tightening torque, resulting in a tighter tensioning of the joint, which in turn has a beneficial effect on the life of the rubber bushings.
