Sono partita dalla spiegazione di cos'è un "Rose joint" (guarda questo link perché trovi anche l'immagine: http://www.ultimatecarpage.com/forum/technical-forums/17914-...
The most common rose joint you will see on every car is a track control rod end.
_IT'S A SPHERICAL BALL IN A JOINT_ which allows angular movement whilst retaining position.
It sits on threaded section which allows variation in the dimension of the connecting point at the joint.
So a fully rose jointed suspension arm woudl have a variable rose joint at EVERY connection point. Normal suspension arm would have bushes at the chassis ends and a ball joint at the wheel end. THe fist joint normall oncverted to a rose is the ball joint as now the driver can vary the camber on the wheel very easily by adjusting the length on the rose joint to move the ball in or out relative to 'normal'. NEXT a serious racer would have rose jointed inner arm bushes and then able to adjust caster and dynamic angle changes during suspensino compression and rebound.
As _ROSE JOINTS_ are metal to metal surfaces they wear more than metalistic and polyurethane bushes AND they offer no vibration and impact absorption. So a full rose jointed car is a nightmare on rought roads.

Ball-joint is usually same construction as the cheapest rose-joints.
But as described, it's the way a joint fits to the fixed parts fo the suspension arms that gives the adjustability.
