Leaf springs that are thicker in the center section to carry the loads and provide suspension characteristics. Fewer leaves are required than with multi-leaf “piles”; therefore, weight may be ...
Load in pounds required to deflect or compress a spring one inch.
Located behind the vehicle dashboard, this feature helps reduce steering wheel movement in the event of a frontal collision and enhances structural rigidity.

Long, flat, thin, flexible section of spring steel or composite material used in suspensions (especially rear suspensions) to deflect force.
Maintenance-free valve lifter that can adjust its length slightly using simple valving and the engine’s oil pressure to maintain zero clearance in the valve train to reduce valve train noise.
Maximum amount of stress in pounds per square inch to which a frame may be subjected through loading and return to its original shape upon removal of the stress with no deformation.
