AWD - all wheel drive
4WD - four wheel drive
FWD - front wheel drive
BCM - body control module
SFA - solid front axle
BTM - brake-throttle modulation
AAL - Add A Leaf. This is a leaf spring application where leaves are added to gain lift or load bearing capacity.
BL - Body Lift.
BPV - Brake Proportioning Valve. A device regulates brake pressure under load conditions.
FIPK - Fuel Injection Performance Kit. An aftermarket air intake component designed to enhance airflow and performance.
IFS - Independent Front Suspension. A type of suspension where the wheels articulate freely from one another.
Locker (or Locking Differential) - A locking differential is a device inside the axle that locks the gears together, allowing power to be distributed to both wheels simultaneously.
LSD - Limited Slip Differential.
MAF - Mass Airflow Sensor.
OEM - Original Equipment Manufacturer. This usually refers to components that are assembled stock from the factory.
SAS - Straight Axle Swap. This is a conversion where the independent front suspension is replaced with a solid axle, normally to gain offroad articulation.
SC (or S/C) - Supercharger or Supercharged.
