This paper captioned chassis technology as a panacea to improving automobile durability in Africa described chassis as it applies to various automobile engines and a meaningful technology of new chassis system was exposed in various components and context requirement for the future chassis. Emphasis is laid on improving and sustaining chassis durability in automobile machines and equipment within the global circle with recommendations of heavy rubber (solid chassis) with sulphur which introduces less hazard to components and occupants and the paper concludes that natural rubber offers good elasticity, while synthetic materials tend to offer better resistance to environmental factors such as oils, temperature, chemicals or ultraviolet light and suchlike. â??Cured rubberâ? is rubber which has been compounded and subjected to the vulcanization process which creates cross-links within the rubber matrix.
