Can the shock absorber stiffness of the Land Cruiser Prado 4000 be adjusted?
1 Answers
It cannot be adjusted manually. The vehicle automatically adjusts the height based on signals from the speed sensor. If the road surface is bumpy, the computer will automatically adjust the suspension stiffness. Below is relevant information about shock absorbers: 1. Introduction: The shock absorber (Absorber) is used to suppress oscillations from spring rebound after absorbing shocks and impacts from the road surface. Widely used in automobiles, it accelerates the attenuation of frame and body vibrations to improve ride comfort. When driving on uneven roads, although the shock-absorbing spring can filter out road vibrations, the spring itself still has reciprocating motion, and the shock absorber is designed to suppress this spring bounce. 2. Working Principle: Most shock absorbers used in automotive suspension systems are hydraulic shock absorbers. Their working principle is that when relative motion occurs between the frame (or body) and axle due to vibration, the piston inside the shock absorber moves up and down, causing the oil in the shock absorber chamber to repeatedly flow from one chamber to another through different orifices.
