Process - Assessment

The Ultimate Suspension comprehensive vehicle assessment process involves a comprehensive inspection of your vehicle and a detailed analysis of your intended use of the vehicle.

From the first point of contact with us, you’ll know that you and your vehicle are in safe hands. We guarantee that you’ll be met by trained staff who know exactly what they’re talking about when assessing your vehicle’s requirements. We’re not all the same so why should your suspension setup be just like everyone else’s? We ask you the questions that matter because here at Ultimate Suspension, we want to know more about our customers and what they use their vehicles for.

Suspension requirements and results are relative to the vehicle’s weight, loads, and towing requirements. For the best results, you cannot afford a compromised system - that is, one kit that fits all. Insist on an ultimate fully integrated system.

The first step in identifying the customer’s requirements is to address the vehicle weight.

The only successful way to achieve active weights is to use a Safe-T-Stop PLATRONIC test platform, which not only provides Gross Vehicle Weight but individual corner and split axle weights. The Safe-T-Stop testing platform also provides records of weight transfer under brakes which is imperative to calculate front axle load and spring rates.

Once the vehicle’s corner weights are identified, then the spring rate can be calculated. To control the spring rebound, the shock absorber damping forces can be formulated. In short, the Spring carries the weight and the Shock controls the spring rebound.

Before investing in your vehicle’s suspension, please check out the following:
