SAEaligned

SAEaligned is a term used in the automotive industry to describe a specific type of vehicle suspension system. The term is derived from the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), which has established standards for various aspects of vehicle design and performance. An SAEaligned suspension system is designed to meet these standards, ensuring that the vehicle's suspension components are properly aligned and functioning optimally.

The primary goal of an SAEaligned suspension system is to provide a smooth and comfortable ride, while also maintaining the vehicle's handling characteristics. This is achieved through precise alignment of the suspension components, including the wheels, control arms, and tie rods. The alignment process involves adjusting these components to ensure that the vehicle's wheels are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the ground, as well as ensuring that the camber, caster, and toe angles are within the specified tolerances.

SAEaligned suspension systems are commonly used in high-performance and luxury vehicles, as well as in vehicles that require frequent towing or hauling. The alignment process is typically performed by a trained technician using specialized equipment, and it is recommended to have the suspension system checked and adjusted regularly to maintain optimal performance and safety.
