They are particularly suitable when the intention is to make the large electric platform sit more cohesively over its wheels without modifying the vehicle software.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy keeping the modification at the sensor-link level, the BAAN kit remains straightforward to inspect, adjust and reverse.
