What does a body-on-frame vehicle mean?
1 Answers
A body-on-frame vehicle refers to a chassis configuration where the frame carries the entire vehicle body, with the engine, suspension, and body all mounted on the frame. The frame features bolt holes for securing the body and bases for fixing the springs. Information about body-on-frame vehicles is as follows: 1. It has an independent frame with high chassis strength and good anti-bump performance. 2. It has strong relative impact resistance and anti-bump performance. Even if the forces on the four wheels are uneven, they are borne by the frame. 3. The body and frame are rigidly connected, which can cause vibrations during driving and pose a threat to the body in case of danger. 4. Due to less stability during driving, the ride comfort is relatively poor.
