ABSTRACT:
In an articulated vehicle adapted for street or off-road use, the forward section manufactured on a first A-frame is pivotably coupled by means of a ball and socket to an aft section manufactured on a second A-frame so as to provide pivotable movement between said forward and aft sections about both horizontal and verticle axes. A first shaft is fixedly coupled to the forward section and extends behind the ball and socket and below a second shaft in said aft section. A coil spring suspension system is coupled between the first and second shafts and is adjustable along the lengths thereof so as to vary the degree of softness with which the vehicle will ride.
