ABSTRACT:
Static attitude (SA) adjustment of a disk drive suspension load beam is conducted before final alignment of a limiter to increase adjustment range, to avoid limiter damage, and to minimize unintended distortion of parts during adjustment. To have the SA adjustment before final alignment of the suspension, the limiter is carried by the load beam beam portion in first position in which the limiter is out of operative association with the flexure tongue during static attitude adjustment. The limiter is shifted into operative association with the tongue only following the static attitude adjustment, typically in a plane being generally parallel with the tongue plane.
