Question

______ absorb road impact and maintain the vehicle’s ride height.
options:

• bushings
• idler arms
• coil springs
• center (drag) links

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Bushings: Reduce friction and vibration, not for ride height.
• Idler arms: Part of steering, not for impact absorption/ride height.
• Coil springs: Absorb road impacts and maintain vehicle ride height (store energy, support weight, dampen shocks).
• Center (drag) links: Part of steering, not for impact/ride height.

Answer:

C. Coil springs
