TOPIC 3 SUSPENSION

An anti- roll bar is also known as :

• a control arm

• torsion bar

• a sway bar

• trailing arm

All of these are types of suspension springs EXCEPT :

• coil spring

• return spring

• leaf spring

• torsion bar

When a vehicle turns itself when a vehicle hits a bump, This is called?

• torque steering

• bump steer

• independent suspension

• drifting

When doing a simple check of shocks, a technician should:

• push the car forward

• hit speed bumps going fast

• push the car backward

• bounce the car

This component absorbs bumps in the road to help prevent driver feel.

• rotor

• shock absorber

• leaf spring

• sway bar

A _______________ has a large amount of energy when it is compressed. So much care should be taken during disassembly.

• insulator

• shock

• coil spring

• control arm

Torsion Bars act as...

• the air storing

• the production of the energy

• the connection between rotational end to the control arm

• all are correct

The suspension system performs all of the following functions EXCEPT:

• supporting the weight of the chassis, drivetrain, passenger compartment, occupants, and any additional load.

• holding the wheels and tires in the proper orientation.

• monitoring the tread wear of each tyre.

• absorbing the large road forces generated while driving on non-perfect roads.

A solid axle is non-independent because:

• it can haul relatively heavy loads.

• it is often supported by leaf springs.

• it has two wheels.

• its two wheels are connected together by the axle.

A ________ not only holds the vehicle's wheels in position, but it also drives them.

• Strut rod

• Live axle

• Compliance bushing

• Dead axle
