1.
Using body weight, depress the
suspension as far as possible and check for freedom of movement
and security of the suspension unit.
2. Check for evidence of fouling between fixed and moving parts.
3. With the side car wheel raised check that the wheel is secure
and that the wheel bearings are not excessively tight or do not
have excessive free play. Spin the wheel and listen for roughness
in the bearings.
4. Check shock absorbers for oil leakage due to seal failure

1.
Excessive stiffness of movement such as might be caused by partial
seizure of the suspension units.
2. Fouling between fixed and moving parts which affects the movement
of the suspension.
3.
a. an insecure suspension unit.
b, a loose wheel spindle or securing nuts or locking device loose
or missing.
c. excessive tightness or free play in the wheel bearings.
d. excessive roughness in a wheel bearing whilst the wheel is
