A vehicle hydropneumatic suspension comprising four double acting rams (1, 2, 3, 4) each between respective one of four spaced wheels at corners of the vehicle. First conduits (9, 11) connecting main chambers (1a, 2a) of front rams (1, 2) with diagonally opposite rear cylinder minor chambers (3b, 4b), respectively, and, second conduits (10, 12) connecting minor chambers (1b, 2b) with main chambers of diagonally opposite rams (3a, 4a), respectively. A load distribution unit (13) has two cylindrical chambers (13a, 13b) each separated by a piston into, respectively, chambers (14, 15) and (16, 17). Conduits (9a, 10a, 11a, 12a) connect respectively conduits (9, 10, 11, 12) to chambers (14, 16, 17, 15). The pistons are connected by a resilient means (20) to allow relative piston movement to provide for independent control of pitch and roll of the vehicle.
