<p>INCREASED ROLL STABILITY SUSPENSION SYSTEM A vehicle suspension system having a low roll center to reduce lateral shifting and jolting, in combination with a stabilizer assembly to provide high roll stability is provided. In a preferred embodiment the roll center of the vehicle is positioned below the vehicle axles to reduce lateral shifting of the wheels with respect to the chassis. The stabilizer assembly is positioned above the axles and couples each axle of the tandem axle pair to the other to require counterbalancing movement of the axles for high roll resistance. The stabilizer assembly is mounted to the vehicle chassis at locations spaced apart from each axle to further reduce the degree of lateral shifting of the wheels with respect to the chassis.</p> |
