Newest Ride on the Road!
This revolutionary new Ford front suspension
soaks up road shock before it reaches youl
Makes all riding and handling easier!
The "old” hoads won’t seem the same with Ford’s new
Ball-Joint Suspension “paving” the way for you. You’ll
enjoy a softer, more level ride because Ford s new system
allows greater shock absorbing movement of the front
wheels. Handling is far better, too. That’s because con-
ventional kingpins have been replaced by simple, sealed
b til joints that won’t stick or bind. No other car in Ford’s
field can equal Ford’s ride—because no other has Ball-
,’oint Suspension.
Agile new performance, too, is yours in a 154 Ford
■ k.. whether you choose Ford's new 130-h.p. Y-block V-8
or 115-h.p. I-block Six. And no matter which of Ford’s
28 new models you choose you enjoy recognized style
leadership—with clean, modem lines . . . sparkling new
colors . . . and harmonizing upholstery fabrics and trim.
EKminates 12 wear points. Fords Ball-Joint Front
Suspension eliminates 12 of 16 points of wear found in
conventional systems. Rubber-bushed supports at inner
ends of suspension control arms reduce the number mi
wear points and insulate chassis from road noises.

Seal* out dirt. You can forget road splash because
dirt and water can’t get into the ball joints in Ford’s new
front suspension. Each of the four joints is effectively
sealed by a unique rubber-and-metal shield. This means
that contact surfaces of each ball and socket remain
clean—wear is kept to a minimum.
Keep* that new-car feel. You’ll enjoy Ford’s new-
car feel much longer because ball joints are spring-
loaded to compensate automatically for any wear. Front
wheels hold alignment far longer than with conventional
systems. Ball joints can't stick or bind. Steering remains
consistently easy.
