ABSTRACT:
A modular wheeled suspension system which may be actuated to move a cargo holding deck or vehicle frame between a ground engaging load position to facilitate the loading of cargo and a transport position out of contact with the ground is provided. An adjustable telescoping frame for the cargo holding deck is further provided to accommodate loads of different sizes. The suspension system employs an arrangement of air bags supported between pivoted bracket elements located adjacent to the vehicle wheels and an air supply system with an automatic locking arrangement to allow the deck or frame to be lowered to a ground engaging load position and maintained in the load position until loading has been completed and the frame or deck raised to the transport position.
