摘要

A telescopic cylinder (10) is disposed between the sprung (22) and unsprung (14, 18) portions of an automotive vehicle and is in fluid communication with a source of fluid external to the telescopic cylinder (10). The telescopic cylinder (10) includes the housing (46) which is operable to receive the fluid. The telescopic cylinder (1) also includes a mount (48) which is operable to secure the housing (46) of the telescopic cylinder (10) to the automotive vehicle (12). The mount (48) includes a fluid passage (66) for allowing fluid to flow from the source of fluid through the mount (48) to the housing (46).
