Preload refers to the initial tension applied to the suspension components of a vehicle, particularly in relation to rear axle adjustments. It affects the ride height and handling characteristics by compressing the springs or adjusting the shocks before the vehicle is loaded. Proper preload ensures optimal contact between the tires and the road, enhancing stability and performance. Adjusting the preload can help fine-tune the vehicle's suspension to accommodate different driving conditions or loads.
