ABSTRACT:
A vehicle suspension assembly having a spring means resiliently supporting axle loading, and including an axle seat to which a vehicle axle is secured. The axle seat is pivotally mounted to apply a moment to the axle seat upon axle loading, said moment applying a force to the spring proportional and in opposition to the loading force. The suspension further includes a mounting assembly for mounting an oscillating member such as a compensator to a fixed member such as a pedestal. The mounting assembly comprises a bushing assembly having a center shaft, the oscillating member oscillating about the axis of said shaft. A sleeve surrounds the shaft, and one of said oscillating or fixed members is secured to the sleeve. The other of said members has an open slot therein which is sized to allow insertion of the bushing shaft therein by passing the shaft through the open end of the slot. Clamping means secure the shaft to the slotted member.
