With the increasing popularity of front-wheel drive automobiles, rack and pinion steering and advanced braking systems, basic service information on these new design components is a necessity for the do-it-yourself or mechanic. MacPherson struts have replaced the traditional shock absorber as the basic suspension unit of almost all modern front suspension designs, and while the modern suspension system contains fewer parts, the service procedures are more complex and unique to each individual system. Similarly, advances in steering and brake system design and performance, make accurate service procedures a necessity.
