ABSTRACT:
An adjustment for vehicle shock absorbers provides for a variable difference between a damping coefficient for the tension stroke and the damping coefficient for the compression stroke. In response to constant short-stroke oscillations of the wheels caused by unevenness of the road, a particular shock absorber generates a force on the vehicle body, the amount of which depends on the difference. By an appropriate control of the forces from the shock absorbers, pitching and rolling movements of the body can be counteracted.
