A simple and cost effective air sprung suspension for tracked vehicles. The apparatus having at least one suspension arm, a track guiding means that include a pair of slide rails, a set of carrier wheels and a set of rear wheels. An air spring biasing mechanism and a shock absorber are mounted along side each other and within the space between the two slide rails. The new mounting arrangement provides for both a simple and cost effective technique of obtaining individual rates of displacement for the shock and air spring. The separately optimized rates of displacements cause the air spring and shock absorber to operate more effectively as a system in delivering greater comfort and increased separation for the occupants from the often rough and varied terrain a tracked vehicle encounters.
