Technician A days that a weak suspension spring can cause a loss of traction during acceleration. Technician B says that a weak suspension spring can cause poor braking power. Who is correct?
While conducting a bounce test: Technician A says that the bumper should be pushed two or three times downward with considerable weight applied on each corner of the vehicle. The bumper should be released after each push and the vehicle should oscillate about 1½ cycles and then settle. Technician B says that one free upward bounce should stop the vertical chassis movement if the shock absorber or strut provides proper spring control. If the vehicle’s bumper does more than 1½ free upward bounces, the shock absorber or strut is defective. Who is correct?
When checking the front end, which of the following are NOT cause for rejection?
Bearing cap is broken or missing or if there are any cracks or welded repairs to any components.
Front axle is bent or gear box mounting is loose, bolts are missing, or bolts or case are cracked.
All of the statements shown are cause for rejection.
The steering damper leaks, is loose, mount is cracked/ broken, or is missing or steering shaft coupler/universal is binding, frayed, or cracked.
