Template:Infobox vehicle part/sandbox

Suspension is an item forming an integral part of a vehicle, and can be found in two different levels, regular and performance. It reduces the bumpiness and body roll while driving.

Usage

Reducing bump effect

Suspension reduces the bumpiness when driving, whether it be on- or off-road. Suspension in poor condition will have a reduced effect on the vehicles bumpiness, therefore reducing speed and increasing chance of damaging the muffler and tire as well as reducing tire compression.

Installation/Uninstallation

Suspension is fitted onto a vehicle under the tire with a jack and lug wrench. Therefore, the tire must first be removed to access the suspension. Each level of mechanics will decrease the chance of causing damage and increase the chance of success. Each vehicle type has a different recommended level, which will result in no damage and a 100% chance of success. The recommended mechanics level for each vehicle type is listed below.

  • Standard: 3
  • Heavy-Duty: 6
  • Sport: 7

It is not possible to mix classes of car parts. For example, a standard class suspension cannot be fitted onto a sport class vehicle. It is possible, however, to mix types of suspension, as long as they are the same class. For example, a standard class vehicle can have performance suspension in the front and regular suspension in the back, so long as they are all standard class parts. This is not recommended, however, as it can severely alter the driving dynamics of the vehicle.

Suspension designed for heavy-duty vehicles, such as the Chevalier D6, has a far greater effect at reducing vehicle bounce than standard or sport vehicles.

Condition

Suspension gradually loses condition while driving, and loses condition faster over rough terrain. Suspension cannot be repaired, meaning the only source of new suspension parts is to loot them from garages or mechanic shops, or salvage them from other vehicles.
