An example of the effect of MCB attachment

Realization of high-quality steering feel

Vibration is reduced, thus improving the quality feel of your car.

Reduced body roll when cornering

This reduces the lateral sway that occurs when the steering wheel is operated.

MCB

Improved line tracing performance

Steering operation makes it easier to drive in the line you are aiming for.

MCB

Improved convergence of lateral sway after passing over uneven road surfaces

After passing over an uneven surface, the body wobbles and shakes, a phenomenon that subsides quickly.

MCB

Reduced left-right sway when passing on a road surface with a bump on one wheel

Roll speed is slowed down and occupant's body/head sway is reduced to improve stability.

MCB

Improved ride comfort and reduced car sickness

Vibration and swaying are reduced, making the ride more comfortable and less likely to cause motion sickness.

The MCB (Motion Control Beam) on ladder frame vehicles increases stability and comfort.

As a result, the car's natural performance is brought out, and the driver can feel the "joy of driving" more than before the installation.

What is MCB (Motion Control Beam)?

MCB is a friction damper unique to AISIN, a global supplier of automotive parts.

The MCB, which combines a disc spring + friction plate, is more efficient than an oil damper in terms of steering response and roll angle settling because it is effective even at low expansion and contraction stroke speeds.

By moderately restraining the escape of road surface input to the body, the MCB allows the suspension to fulfill its intended role, which has a positive effect on ride comfort and handling stability.

Effective not only on-road but also off-road

MCB does not only have a positive effect on on-road driving. It also has a positive effect on off-road driving, such as dirt and cross-country driving.

Traction and stickiness in off-road driving are also caused by the frame daring to twist. Therefore, if the frame is simply converted to a rigid frame, while frame rigidity is improved, the ride quality may deteriorate and the stickiness may be lost, making the vehicle difficult to handle.

Therefore, when the MCB is properly installed, the frame is connected to the damper, and the "amount" of frame torsion is not inhibited, but the "quality" of the torsion can be controlled.

It is easier to understand if we consider the frame as part of the suspension. The frame is more rigid than the springs, so the amount of change is less, but it is constantly vibrating and twisting while driving. It goes without saying that driving with dampers is far superior to driving with springs alone.

MCB

Development of specially designed bracket kit

We focused on frame distortion and vibration during driving in Land Cruiser Prado and Hilux, which are ladder frame vehicles.

By optimally installing MCBs at the front, center, and rear of the ladder frame, body distortion and unpleasant vibrations are suppressed to improve stability and control of vehicle behavior.

The MCB can be installed to the body without any modification or bolt-on with the bracket designed exclusively for each vehicle model.

MCB

Recommended for everyone with or without customization.

The installation of MCBs suppresses minute vibrations that can be felt by humans, reducing extraneous noise from information transmitted as driving feel.

In this way, the enjoyment of driving can be felt more than before the installation.

This product is recommended for everyone, regardless of stock ride height or degree of lift.
