<p>A vehicle suspension (9) that has a first (14) and second (13) telescoping supports. At least one recirculating, nonspherical roller bearing (36) is attached to the first support (14), rollably abutting at least one race (23) on the second support (13). The supports (13, 14) are configured for mounting between two portions (12, 15) of a vehicle (10) to movably connect the two portions (12, 15). The bearings (36) and the races (23) are shaped to reduce friction during telescoping movement and to cooperatively control relative rotation between the supports (13, 14) about the telescoping path. The suspension is preferably a single sided fork (164) with an axle (288) that is axially tapered.</p> |
