Suspension compliance questions
1. Yes, the hard components such as the frame, sway-bar, suspension links etc which deflect under load contribute to the compliance of the system.
2. Understeer effect
3. Since the lateral force always acts on the ground level i.e, below all the rigid suspension components, where there is a very soft component, tyre, the front wheel almost always gains positive camber
4. Yes. If the understeering effect in the front is less than the oversteering effect in the rear i.e, rear suspension being more compliant than the front, net oversteer effect can be achieved
