ABSTRACT:
A suspension for a vehicle having wheel-supporting axles arranged in tandem. The suspension comprises a walking beam pivoted intermediate its ends to the frame of the vehicle. The axle support of one road engaging wheel is secured to one end of the walking beam, and the axle support of the other road engaging wheel is secured to a support arm which is mounted for pivotal movement relative to the walking beam. An air bag is interposed between the support arm and the opposite end of the walking beam. The walking beam provides for equalizing movement between the tandem axles and a cushioning member, such as an air bag and the like absorbs road shock during such equalizing movement.
