Textbook Question
Chapter 46, Problem 9ASRQ
While conducting a bounce test: Technician A says that the bumper should be pushed two or three times downward with considerable weight applied on each corner of the vehicle. Technician B says that one free upward bounce should stop the vertical chassis movement if the shock absorber or strut provides proper spring control. Who is correct?

b. Technician B only
c. Both A and B
d. Neither A nor B

Students have asked these similar questions
A discussion concerning CV joint testing is being held.
Technician A says that a recommended method to check CV joints is to raise the vehícle so that the lower control arms are hanging freely; at this point the engine can be
accelerated while noise checks can be performed.
Technician B says that the vehicle should be road tested so that the CV joints can be checked under load.
Who is correct?
O a. A only
O b. B only
c. Both A and B
d. Neither A nor B
Describe uncontrolled spring action without a shock absorber.
When discussing CV joint diagnosis,
Technician A says that the complete failure of a CV joint may cause the vehicle not to hold in Park.
Technician B says that a worn axle dampener assembly can cause a vibration while driving.
Who is correct?
O a. A only
O b. B only
c. Both A and B
O d. Neither A nor B
