What is suspension load?

Suspension load refers to the amount of weight that a vehicle's suspension system can support and maintain a stable ride. It is the combined weight of all the components of the car, including the body, engine, passengers, cargo, and anything else that adds to the vehicle's total weight.

The suspension system includes various parts such as shocks, struts, springs, and other components that work together to keep the vehicle stable and level while driving. The suspension load capacity is an important consideration when selecting a vehicle or upgrading an existing suspension system to make sure it can handle the weight of the vehicle and its contents.

Excessive suspension load can cause the vehicle's suspension to sag, affecting its handling and stability, while insufficient suspension load can lead to a rough ride and decreased handling. It is essential to balance the suspension load with the vehicle's weight and intended use to ensure optimal performance and safety.
