Suspension System:
The automobile vehicle's frame and body are mounted on the front and rear axle not directly but through some form of springs and shock absorbers. This is done to damp road shocks transmitted parts that perform this function are called a suspension system.
Thus, the suspension system includes springs, shock absorbers, and mountings. The suspension system of a motor vehicle is divided into rear-end suspension and front-end suspension.
Types of Suspension Systems:
Independent suspension: In this type of suspension, each front wheel is independently supported by a coil, torsion bar, or leaf spring. Most passenger cars now use independent front suspension, in which the coil spring system is the most common.
Types of Independent suspension:
1. Macpherson Strut Suspension
2. Double Wishbone Suspension
3. Multilink Suspension
4. Trailing Arm Suspension
Non-Independent or Rigid axle suspension: This type of suspension was universally used before independent front wheel suspension was introduced. It may use either two longitudinal leaf springs, as shown in the figure, or transverse springs, usually in conjunction with shock absorbers. These assemblies are mounted similarly to rear leaf spring suspensions.
Types of Non-Independent or Rigid axle suspension:
1. Solid Axle Leaf Spring Suspension
2. Solid Axle Coil Spring
Other Suspension Types:
1. Air Suspension
2. Hydro Elastic Suspension

Nice one XD
There are only very few KZhead videos that show the details of how car systems work in detail. And yours is the best of them all. Keep up this good quality content.
Thanks 👍
Great content
@@TheEngineersPost can you tell me Stages in suspension system?
This is well done and easy to digest even for non car guys or beginners. I would also like to add Torsion Bar rear suspension, it's also a non independent suspension common in economy cars. The torsion bar also acts as an anti roll bar but most of the time it is tuned for comfort. The design is simple and cheap to make also there is rarely a way to adjust the wheel alignment for such suspension.
He did happen to mention it at 3:20, and I completely agree! This made it way easier to understand.
The kind you're talking about acts as the anti-roll bar but not as the springs. The cars I'm aware of that have it use coil springs, not torsion bars. A true torsion bar suspension is found on the front of Chrysler/Dodge/Plymouth rear-drive cars from the '60s to the '80s.
Yes, probably you refer to semi-independent suspension which is very popular today because its simplicity ,low cost and almost independent suspension. I have a car with this type of suspension and I am very satisfied with the behavior of the car.
*tortion BEAM, not tortion bar (which is a whole different thing).

I love cars so much,that's why I am a motor vehicle technician by profession,I hope I get mine soon
You will get your own car this year in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen
It'll happen. Keep working, keep saving, make it happen. Trust
Well done, thanks for making suspension easier to understand. The video was very detailed (if a little disorganised in places). This presentation would really step up a class with the addition of 2 concepts in the English language: - the definite and indefinite article needs to be added (“the” & “a”). Example: “the tyre” for a specific tyre, “a tyre” for any tyre. - plurals: most English words add an “S” at the end when referring to multiples. Example: “cats” is plural, “cat” is singular. However some words are both plural and singular. Example “sheep” or “fruit”. English is hard - but I really appreciate you translating so I can understand your video.
Judging by the sound artifacts in some phonyms and the fact that many videos on many channels have been using the exact same voice recently, I'm pretty sure that this is a robot voice. Still informative !
but how we can make a different bitween a robot voice and real voice ?? do you have any idéal...😒
Super informative to be honest. The breakdowns are basic fundamentals, and easy to digest.
Thanks for explaining suspension system in simple way. Now a days Twist beam rear suspension is commonly used in cars and small SUV. Same need to be included.
I’ve been working on car since a was ten years old and never seen a twin I beam in the real
Superb presentation and very educational. The graphics, photography, format and core teaching are seminal, which makes the poor computerised English and syntax easily forgiven because the overall instructional video is truly excellent.
Well done, thank you for the videos it has simplified my lecture in the class, and students are really enjoying the film during lessons time and it has made them to understand it clearly during explanations. Thank you very much be blessed Keep your work on.
Awesome video! Everything was easy to understand and simple for the average person. One suspension system I would have liked to be included is the “i-beam” with is like a solid axle but a little different.
The Ford Ranger being the king of camber thanks to the ibeam
Knowing about suspension system is good. I never knew my car really do this much of work 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️😅. Its very informative video ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for watching
Explanation was high level but it could easily understand by a beginner. I really thankful to this video and concept of types of suspensions used in cars. Thank you.
Thanks for the detailed explanation about the suspension system. What is the best system to have for the least bumps in the car
This is the best tutorial in suspension I ever had...... sooo...knowing the Citroèn AIR SUSPENSION...I’d say.....AIR SUSPENSION IS THE BEST SUSPENSION SISTEM EVER...in my experience...🤨✊🙏
Luv this kind of stuff,,,, very helpfully informative & enlightening. Really, it is a must for motor vehicle owners in knowing that vehicle. Keep up your good work.👍✔️
Glad it was helpful!
Great!!! Very explicit description of the suspension system. Thanks for the lecture. Engr. Chidi Onuigbo.
Glad you liked it!
This video is what i always wanted KZhead to suggest. Awesome content and nicely done. Please keep up your good work and keep educating us
Glad you enjoy it!
Thanks, great explanation! Would like to see yours take on the Wheel by REE as well.
Nice ... thanks for the clear and detailed video. However, you didn't mention the interesting very compact leaf spring suspension on the Volvo's ;-)
This is so good, didn’t realise there so so many. Very informative video
Thanks for this video that let me be more familiar with the suspension system. Alex who is now studying one automotive course.
Excellent. You didn't mention de Dion suspension but I realise it's rarely used now. But Rover 3500 and some Alfa's used them. They kept the rear wheels flat on the road. .
great explanation, one of the best ever seen on youtube so far
Awesome explanation! Great job, mate!
Thanks you for this vidéo that help me to understand how it works. Just missing électromagnétic suspension from Bose, but it's ok
Excellent explanation. Great job guys!
I love those kinds of videos about cars... keep 'em coming guys, nice job.
More to come!
This video couln't be any better. Thanks for resolving all my doubts
Thanks for such an elaborate explanation, really love your video
You forgot the Magnetic Suspension.. other than that youre awesome
didn't bose quit with the magnetic suspension
@@veljkostejic9594 I think he means magnetorheological dampers, which are used in performance cars
@@pbjracing14yearsago49 they are used? i thought that concept was forgotten

great content 👍👌👏, heaven for a mechanical engineer
I love your videos sir. ...... I have been always fascinated by your videos the way you teach and animate is to the next level...and the topics are really really good and important
thank you so much.. i really want this type of explanation
Great Presentation... please make a video on Electromagnetic active suspension.
Cool video 🤘🏼!! Also add Citroen 2cv type suspension system .. even that is very innovative made for farm land and still carry a bag of eggs without breaking it ..
The best suspension system I have ever seen
Bro your video is awesome plus easy to understand and u just earned a sub!! I hope in one day ur channel become more popular!!
I have an interview in 2 days. Using this to refresh some knowladge. Will edit and confirm if I get it.
Thank you for sharing detailed information.
Very nice. We are very happy to know suspension system. Please show and explain us all over knowledge about suspension system and show test of famous cars company's suspension position after loading full passengers and luggage.
Appreciate your time and effort in making this detailed video
Perfect analysis, thank you! Just a question: if you add a spring spacer at the springs of a torsion beam (in order to raise the ride height at the back), do you affect the spring preload?
i love your narration style ouya it's so smooth and natural.
Keep up the good work 👍👍 hope you reach the million subs really quick 👍 that's a unique content.
Thanks in a million. Great content.
Thnak You. Great explanation vid about car suspensions here.
Great Explanation of the above subject ,Thanks lots keep going all the best good luck
What a great work you do behind your computer.. awesome!!,
I love the independent suspension system then other options of suspensions
Thank you very much... best explanations....
You are welcome!
You forget the Magnatic suspention ...thank you for this super cool video
Fantastic explanation, would love to know which one is the best for what kind of vehicles
Depends
Please, do the same vid explanation to super exotic cars suspension, im extracting your knowledges for an hour in this vid, great job
Can u please explain the types of leaf springs with neat sketches
Thanks for excellent introduction of different suspension types. coilovers is missed?
I have a c24 Serena that I use as a taxi. Any suggestions about how to prevent the rear wheels from positive cambering with heavy loads?
Could you make a video about multifuel engines (REO or MAN EMMA) with a middle ball head piston. And a video about a Converter gearbox from heavy duty trucks
Valuable information, presentation is nice.
Magnetic or electromagnetic suspensión? Thanks for the video.
Now exists electromagnetic car suspension too. It would be interesting to know how it works.
That would be Bose Suspension, 1980s i believe.
21 novembro 2021 , domingo, 10h12 Assistindo pela primeira vez este video. Suspensões com tração e ajuste de altura e pressão de molas . Dianteiras e traseiras .
Very informative lesson.
Glad it was helpful!
Great post. Thanks a lot 🙏🏼
Nice tutorial job sir, nice car mechanic and very helpful and useful channel,new friend here support.
GREAT WORK AND SUPERB EXPLANIATION......................
Great explain sir
next do different suspension systems for different settings eg sports racing, off-road terrain etc
Anti-sway bars , Anti-roll at 5:39 . The video forgets to mention that trailing or leading arm suspension allows those bars to connect without a link (VW bug). An interesting case is the rear axle on a Golf Mk1 which mixes in some camber. Also I did not find a mentioning about steering. See how braking and acceleration is almost the same for a suspension, and similar to cornering! Race cars thus have double wishbone all around ( for track ). Off road you may see solid axle in front and back. Renault Twizy has McPherson all around. I like how McPherson saves joints, but I don't like that it needs a high hood (okay, no problem with an inclined hood in like the Renault Espace). Where is the integral link suspension? It is used in modern Golf and Ford Mustang in the rear. The video forgets to explain that a multi-link suspension allow you to place a virtual pivot in the center of the rubber. Still I like the Citroen DS with a real pivot in the rubber more. Don't need power-steer for that because you only rotate one joint. I want precision cornering and thus a long, stiff lower wishbone. It may be a bit trailing in the back and leading in the front for anti-squat and anti-dive. Thus I guess I need two links to connect the anit-sway bars. Does anybody have an idea how to connect anti-sway diagonally under the body floor?
Plz do share information on hydrolic or magnetic suspention
Thank you, robot teacher!
Genius at work 👍
Thanks ...learned a lot!
Well presented
No doubt U have explained very nicely , but one thing I would ask atat type of suspension should be used , or would be better for some particular, vehicles , and no doubt as U told some R not easily available, or very costly so in thst case what would be the better or best many thanks , GOD BLESS YOU
Very Educating .Thanks so much
Super. Excellent explanation and video.
You forget a very common independent front suspension being twin I beam. Also they used nitrogen in some variations of the hydro elastic and hydraulic versions of the swing arm suspension…swing arm are both fixed axle an independent axle configurations
I have search everywhere for the Mercedes twin lower ball joint design and it's like some kind of secret. Even Tesla's, New Camaro's, and a few others now use it. Sadly working in a garage you find most mechanics rather slap you silly for bring in a German car in the first place, because they want a pay check that week! But I digress. I had to figure it out on my own years ago, yet still today, few know how it works and was missed in this video. So see if you can guess why they have two fixed lower arm with ball joints off set at the lower front spindle. It's amazing what Mercedes has and still does in engineering.
Congratulation... u just earn 1 more subscriber... keep up the good work
Super Sir SALUTE your hard work Sir 👏👏👏👏👏💥💥💥💥💥👍👍👍
Thank you
It's awesome , excellent video I never see in my life .it's. Really explanation very easier manner
Finally I got a perfect channel 🙂🙏🔥
Thank you so much
Can you do the Citroen's old suspension explaination?
Both Citroëns, the DS and 2CV are not mentioned but both are very ingenious and different.
Ohh begitu ya, terima kasih kakak sekararang saya paham
You forgot that with the solid axle coil spring setup there are multiple diffrent ways of attaching the axle to the chassis such as 3 link, Parallel 4 link, semi-triangulated 4 link, fully triangulated 4 link, truck arm, and torque arm. You also fogot the different side to side axle centering menthods, those being panhard bar and watts link. Lastly, that those centering devices are only needed on NON triangulated designs such as the 3 link, parallel 4 link, truck arm, and torque arm setups.
You forgot about front composite leaf suspension as used in the Mercedes’ sprinter 👍
To the engeenering post which type of spring is better in mountain area? Such as Non independent or independent suspension.
Can you pleas explain the hydropneumatic suspension?
Hi, a very good explanation I like it,how about AHC suspension
1. Where is dual axis strut, panhard, and rear mclaren 720s type? 2. In live axle, there is also another type using center control arm, used in 1st generation of suzuki vitara/sidekick instead of torsion bar. 3. And i think there is a bit difference between front macpherson strut; and general front "strut" type which ussually used in body on frame chassis nowadays, this strut still using control arm from front side of chassis to hold lower arm.
Thanks for the video
I think You missed the rare electromagnetic (EM) suspension like Bose.
Thx a lot admin. I find a way to make trolley
No problem!
I was looking for single and double acting cam actuated piston type shock absorber. If possible somebody please share me the link of the working video
What I saw under the G-Wagon was a Torsion bar. INTRESTING.
Informative video 👍
Thanks 🙂
Nice video. I request permission to use a little part of this video for the purposes of my youtube channel content. Thank you🙏 Greeting from Indonesia🇲🇨
Some bicycles use neoprene foam rubber bushings to absorb shocks from the road.
No they don't. They use tires.
