It’s not just about building suspension—it’s about understanding how it works. Fundamentals of Fabrication students are learning four-link style suspension geometry for off-road vehicles, laying out their designs on chipboard and studying pivot placement, suspension travel, and the difference between smaller and larger arcs and mounting positions. They also learned how to properly position a vehicle on weighing pads to get precise weight and measurement data, giving them the numbers they need to make informed decisions when designing and building suspension systems.
