ABSTRACT:
A suspension adjuster apparatus (48) suitable for use in a motor vehicle having a torsion spring (30) interposed and connecting a chassis (10) to a chassis member (14) is described. The suspension adjuster (48) includes an adjuster seat (66) and an elastomeric pad (68) disposed between the adjuster seat (66) and the chassis member (14). The adjuster apparatus (48) preloads the torsion spring (30) to provide a predetermined ride height while reducing the vibrations transmitted from the suspension to the chassis and passenger compartment of the motor vehicle.
