Emergency or parking brake shoes, little brake shoes inside the rear rotors, used only with hand (or in this case, foot) brake. They will fall apart and get peices trapped between the rotor and shoe, makes some odd noises. Backing plates (the metal ring behind the rotors) can be bent slightly and rub the rotor causing some noises too. The sway bars go from side to side, on the front it runs from lower control arm l/h to lower control arm r/h. There is a drop bracket that holds the inner bushings. (which are nothing more than a rubber sleeve)
