constructed vehicles? - Which of the following mechanical components are commonly found on
newer unitized constructed vehicles?
In front-engine, rear-wheel drive unitized vehicles, the engine is mounted - longitudinally
The ___ are the large, side body sections that extend from the side doors back to the rear
bumper. They are welded in place and form a vital part of the rear body structure. - quarter
panels
___ construction uses body parts welded together to form an integral frame. - unibody
Technician A gives a more thorough damage analysis to a unibody vehicle than to a

thorough inspection. Who is correct? - technician A
Which of the following are designed to stiffen a unibody structure? - cross members and bracing
Which of the following frame designs are no longer used in automobile manufacturing? - ladder
In a front-engine, front-wheel drive unibody structure, what panel supports the top of the
MacPherson struts? - Shock Towers
Technician A says that a unibody structure directly affects vehicle wheel alignment. Technician B
says that a vehicle's unibody structure does not affect vehicle wheel alignment. Who is correct?
- technician A
