ABSTRACT:
A suspension system including a leaf spring assembly associated with a forward vehicle axle and an air spring suspension assembly associated with a rear axle with an articulated connection between them, such as by way of a shackle. The air spring suspension assembly includes a rocker arm pivotally supported from the chassis. A torque rod and beam assembly is pivotally supported from the chassis and is connected to the axle. An air spring is mounted between the torque rod and beam assembly and a rocker arm. The rocker arm has angled sections allowing accommodation of either wide base or narrow base air spring positions. Other angled sections of the rocker arm position the mounting bushing generally on a line between the air spring and the shackle to center the load on the bushing.
