The Suspension and Alignment course focuses on two major areas. Suspension - I was taught the principles and designs of various automotive suspension systems: coil, leaf, air spring and torsion bars, air and electronic leveling and height control components and sensors. Alignment and Steering Systems: I learned wheel alignment angles including camber, caster, steering axis inclination, turning radius and toe settings with an understanding of the importance of all angles plus rear wheel alignment and know the difference between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive alignment procedures. Included in the training was diagnosis and repair of manual and power steering gears, power steering pumps, and step-by-step procedures of diagnosing tire wear and drivability problems.
