| + | A rigid chassis allows a suspension system to operate more reliably and consistantly. It does this by preventing any geometry changes from occuring outside of the intented pivot point in the suspension. Also as a chassis flexes points such as the center of gravity and roll center will move. By stiffening up the chassis it ensures that these points will remain consistant and the suspension can function as it was designed. | ||
