This real component trainer provides the instructor with a working light vehicle steering and suspension system for group or whole-class demonstration.

This includes all of the individual components of the system presented on a movable, steel frame so that each component can be clearly identified. The system comprises front wheel assemblies, MacPherson strut and coil spring assemblies, road wheels and power steering rack.

The trainer can also be used in conjunction with our optional cloud-based software, which offers online practical tasks as well as interactive theory presentations, investigations, and assessments, which link directly to the practical activities carried out using this resource.
