RJ-1742-0

Submitted by administrator on Wed, 03/04/2015 - 00:58

For vehicles whose rear axle suspension was modified to an air suspension type, stress tends to concentrate on the cross member securing parts of the frame when the vehicle is turning or on a bumpy road because the lateral rod was installed, and the frame may crack. If this problem is left unattended, the cracks may grow, and in the worst case, the frame might break, which would adversely affect the stability of the vehicle.
