The wheel — motor type (lever), but the front steer wheels (sidecar) turn like a car. These wheels are suspended on the bridge, which is dvuhlitrovuyu the spring, raskreplennye diagonal rods.
Rear axle suspended from the frame on the shock absorbers (“Tourist”). He is without a differential, and therefore the driving wheel (from the car “Lada”) he has one left. When slippage on a slippery road right hub is locked with a pivot axle, making the wheel leading.
