Basic Parts and Types of the Suspension and Steering Systems Suspension System If a vehicle's axles were bolted directly to its frame or body, every rough spot in the road would transmit a jarring force throughout the vehicle Riding would be uncomfortable, and handling at freeway speeds would be impossible. The fact that the modern vehicle rides and handles well is a direct result of a suspension system Even though the tires and wheels must follow the road contour, the body should be influenced as little as possible [1 The purpose of any suspension system is to allow the body of the vehicle to travel forward with a minimum amount of up and-down movement. The suspension should also permit the vehicle to make turns without excessive body roll or tire skidding

Riding would be uncomfortable, and handling at freeway speeds would be impossible. The fact that the modern vehicle rides and handles well is a direct result of a suspension system. Even though the tires and wheels must follow the road contour, the body should be influenced as little as possible [1]. The purpose of any suspension system is to allow the body of the vehicle to travel forward with a minimum amount of upand-down movement. The suspension should also permit the vehicle to make turns without excessive body roll or tire skidding
Suspension System Components Vehicle frame A vehicle's frame or body must form a rigid structural foundation and provide solid anchorage points for the suspension system there are two types of vehicle construction in common use today: body over-frame construction which uses a separate steel frame to which the body is bolted at various points and unibody construction, in which the body sections serve as structural members. Unibody construction is the most common but body-over-frame construction is still used on pickup trucks and large cars Springs The springs are the most obvious part of the suspension system Every vehicle has a spring of some kind between the frame or body and the axles. there are three types of springs in general use today leaf spring coil spring and torsion bar. two different types of springs can be used on one vehicle. Air springs were once used in place of the other types of springs but are now obsolete. Many modern vehicles have air-operated suspensions but they are used to supplement the springs

Unibody construction is the most common, but body-over-frame construction is still used on pickup trucks and large cars. Springs The springs are the most obvious part of the suspension system. Every vehicle has a spring of some kind between the frame or body and the axles. There are three types of springs in general use today: leaf spring, coil spring, and torsion bar. Two different types of springs can be used on one vehicle. Air springs were once used in place of the other types of springs, but are now obsolete. Many modern vehicles have air-operated suspensions, but they are used to supplement the springs
Shock absorbers When the vehicle is traveling forward on a level surface and the wheels strike a bump the spring is rapidly compressed (coil springs)or twisted (leaf springs and torsion bars). The spring will attempt to return to its normal loaded length In so doing it will rebound causing the body of the vehicle to be lifted Since the spring has stored energy, it will rebound past its normal length. The upward movement of the vehicle also assists in rebounding past the spring s normal length The weight of the vehicle then pushes the spring down after the spring rebounds. The weight of the vehicle will push the spring down but since the vehicle is traveling downward, the energy built up by the descending body will push the spring below its normal loaded height. This causes the spring to rebound again. This process called spring oscillation, gradually diminishes until the vehicle is finally still. Spring oscillation can affect handling and ride quality and must be controlled
