ABSTRACT:
A vehicle suspension device includes a shock absorber disposed between a sprung portion and an unsprung portion of a vehicle for each of the vehicle wheels, a damping force changing device for changing a damping characteristic of the shock absorber, a detecting device for detecting a difference in a damping force among the shock absorbers for respective wheels, and a control device for controlling the damping characteristic of the shock absorber so as to restrict the difference in the damping force among the wheels when the vehicle is in a specific running condition. Through the use of such a vehicle suspension device, diagonal vibration can be suppressed, improved running stability can be obtained and riding comfort can be improved.
