This SAE Recommended Practice establishes consistent test procedures for determination of steady-state directional control properties for passenger cars and light trucks with two axles. These properties include the steering-wheel angle gradient@ reference steer angle gradient@ sideslip angle gradient@ vehicle roll angle gradient@ and steering-wheel torque gradient with respect to lateral acceleration. They also include the yaw velocity gain@ lateral acceleration gain@ and sideslip angle gain with respect to steering-wheel angle. Additionally@ the characteristic or critical speed and the front and rear wheel steer compliances may be determined
