ABSTRACT:
An air suspension system for the rear end of a motor home including a pair of longitudinally extending frames having a transversely extending axle housing positioned below the frames. The air suspension system comprises a pair of generally L-shaped arms pivotally secured at the forward ends thereof to the frame. An air bag is secured to the rearward end of each of the L-shaped arms and extends upwardly therefrom. The upper ends of the air bags are secured to laterally extending brackets which are secured to the frames. Each of the L-shaped arms are secured to the axle housing for movement therewith. An air pump is provided for supplying air to the interiors of the air bags as required. A level control is operatively connected to each of the L-shaped arms for sensing relative movement between the arms and the associated frame for controlling the flow of air into and out of the air bag.
