This is a 2.5x32mm steel hinge pin designed to act as the main pivot shaft for the rear or front lower suspension arms. It passes through the suspension arm and mounts into the chassis or suspension holders, allowing the arms to pivot smoothly while staying securely retained. This component is critical for maintaining suspension articulation, wheel alignment, and overall chassis stability during driving and impacts. Because it is a long, load-bearing pivot point, it experiences significant stress during jumps, crashes, and off-road use. It is commonly replaced when bent, worn, or lost during disassembly. The IMX16379 typically comes as a set of multiple pins (often x4) to service a full vehicle.
