2. Height adjustable suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Height_adjustable_suspension

   Height adjustable suspension is a feature of certain automobile suspension systems that allow the motorist to vary the ride height or ground clearance. This can be done for various reasons including giving better ground clearance over rough terrain, a lower ground clearance to improve performance and fuel economy at high speed, [1] or for stylistic reasons.

3. Car suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car_suspension

   Suspension is the system of tires, tire air, springs, shock absorbers and linkages that connects a vehicle to its wheels and allows relative motion between the two. [1] Suspension systems must support both road holding/handling and ride quality, [2] which are at odds with each other. The tuning of suspensions involves finding the right compromise.

4. Independent suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_suspension

   In automobiles, a double wishbone suspension is an independent suspension design using two (occasionally parallel) wishbone-shaped arms to locate the wheel. Each wishbone or arm has two mounting points to the chassis and one joint at the knuckle. The shock absorber and coil spring mount to the wishbones to control vertical movement.

5. Pull-rod suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pull-rod_suspension

   Pull-rod suspension and push-rod suspension refer to a specialised type of automotive suspension system which is largely based on a double-wishbone system, incorporating elements of the commonly used MacPherson strut. [1] In cars, suspension refers to the system by which the vehicle maintains contact between all of its wheels and the ground.

6. MacPherson strut - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacPherson_strut

   Unibody construction also distributes suspension stresses. [14] The strut will usually carry both the coil spring, on which the body is suspended, and the shock absorber, which is usually in the form of a cartridge mounted within the strut (see coilover). The strut can also have the steering arm built into the lower outer portion. The whole ...

7. Shock absorber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_absorber

   A strut is a structural component that combines the shock absorber with other suspension parts like the coil spring and steering knuckle into one compact unit [14] Unlike a shock absorber, a strut has a reinforced body and stem.
