Camber Compensators
Front
Car safety wasn't always baked in. In the early 1960s, cars with swing axle suspension could let a rear wheel tuck under in hard cornering. VW, Porsche, Renault, and the Corvair all used the design.
Camber compensators, simple bars or springs, limited that tilt. The aftermarket sold them first, at the customer's expense. Chevrolet then sold its own handling package as an option, and only engineered the fix into the car years later.
Safety was an accessory before it was a design.
