How To Maintain The Chassis Of A Truck?

How to maintain the chassis of a truck?

1. Rust prevention
First, the chassis must be thoroughly cleaned. If there is too much mud on the chassis, it must be washed with a degreasing detergent to expose the original "color" of the chassis before anti-rust care can be started. In addition, it should be noted that after cleaning, the anti-rust care can only be carried out after the moisture on the chassis is completely dried. When performing the care, it is necessary to maintain a uniform spray coating to form a layer of uniform anti-rust coating that is retained for a long time. After all the work is completed, it is naturally dried for 5-10 minutes, and the chassis anti-rust treatment is considered complete.

2. Use alkaline cleaning agents with caution
After completing professional chassis care, it does not mean that everything is foolproof. To keep the truck clean, truck drivers often wash the truck, and some detergent is often added. At this time, please be careful not to use alkaline detergent to wash the body and chassis, otherwise it will greatly affect the anti-rust effect and shorten the anti-rust time.

3. Tire tightness
The truck chassis and the braking system are integrated, so good tire maintenance can also protect the chassis. The running performance of the truck tire affects the truck's travel function. If the rotation system is too loose or too tight, it will inevitably cause damage to the chassis, so the tire tightness should be adjusted to a suitable condition and the wear should be checked regularly.

Summary

The best way to protect the truck is to change your driving habits. Good habits are directly related to the service life of the vehicle. Especially in some rugged and complex road conditions, the damage to the chassis is very large. If the wheel is accidentally trapped in the mud, the chassis will be seriously damaged, so it is best to find a smooth and solid cement and asphalt road to drive. At the same time, it is also necessary to be familiar with the distance between the chassis and the ground, so that you can roughly judge whether the road will collide with the chassis and reduce the damage to the chassis.
