Hoʻokomo pinepine ʻia ke kukui paleki kiʻekiʻe ma ka ʻaoʻao o luna o ke kua o ke kaʻa, i maʻalahi ai ke ʻike ʻana o ke kaʻa e holo ana ma hope i ke alo o ka paleki kaʻa, e pale aku i ka ulia hope. No ka mea, ʻelua mau kukui paleki i kau ʻia ma ka hopena o ke kaʻa, hoʻokahi hema a hoʻokahi ʻākau, no laila ua kapa ʻia ke kukui paleki kiʻekiʻe ʻo ke kukui paleki ʻekolu, ke kukui paleki kiʻekiʻe, ke kukui paleki ʻekolu. Hoʻohana ʻia ke kukui paleki kiʻekiʻe e hoʻomaopopo i ke kaʻa ma hope, i mea e pale aku ai i ka hoʻokuʻi ʻana ma hope.
ʻO nā kaʻa me nā kukui paleki kiʻekiʻe ʻole, ʻoiai nā kaʻa a me nā kaʻa mini me ka chassis haʻahaʻa i ka wā e paleki ai ma muli o ke kūlana haʻahaʻa o ke kukui paleki hope, ʻaʻole lawa ka mālamalama, ʻo nā kaʻa ma hope, ʻoiai nā mea hoʻokele o nā kalaka, nā kaʻa a me nā kaʻa me ka chassis kiʻekiʻe i kekahi manawa paʻakikī ke ʻike maopopo. No laila, ʻo ka pōʻino huna o ka hoʻokuʻi hope he nui loa. [1]
Ua hōʻike ʻia ka nui o nā hopena noiʻi e hiki i ke kukui paleki kiʻekiʻe ke pale a hōʻemi i ka hanana o ka ulia hope. No laila, hoʻohana nui ʻia nā kukui paleki kiʻekiʻe ma nā ʻāina i hoʻomohala ʻia. No ka laʻana, ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa, e like me nā lula, pono e hoʻolako ʻia nā kaʻa i kūʻai hou ʻia me nā kukui paleki kiʻekiʻe mai ka makahiki 1986. Pono hoʻi nā kalaka māmā a pau i kūʻai ʻia mai ka makahiki 1994 i nā kukui paleki kiʻekiʻe.
