A vehicle suspension assembly including a suspension control arm pivotally coupled to a vehicle frame member by a bushing assembly. The bushing assembly includes a bushing bracket, a bushing, and a cam adjustment mechanism that couples the bushing bracket to a connection interface of the vehicle frame member. The cam adjustment mechanism includes a cam plate rotatably retained on a first fastener such that the cam plate is rotatable relative to the bushing bracket independent of rotation of the first fastener. The cam plate is rotatable relative to the first fastener and the bushing bracket about an axis of rotation that is spaced from a centerline of the bushing at a nonparallel orientation. Rotation of the cam plate relative to the first fastener adjusts the position of the bushing bracket and therefore the bushing relative to the vehicle frame member to provide alignment adjustment.

In some examples, a vehicle suspension for supporting, at least in part, a sprung mass, includes a damper connected to the sprung mass, the damper including a movable piston. The vehicle suspension further includes an actuator and a controller. The controller may be configured to determine a frequency of motion associated with the sprung mass. When the frequency of motion is below a first frequency threshold, the controller may send a control signal to cause the actuator to apply a deceleration force to the sprung mass. Further, when the frequency of motion associated with the sprung mass exceeds the first frequency threshold, the controller may send a control signal to cause the actuator to apply a compensatory force to the sprung mass. For instance, a magnitude of the compensatory force may be based on a friction force determined for the damper.

A pneumatically operable adjusting device (1) is provided for acting on a spring device (5) of a spring damper device (3) having a tubular body (2), with a tubular piece-shaped housing (4) which is designed to surround the tubular body (2) and has a passage (6) passing through a peripheral wall of the housing (4), and the adjusting device (1) has an adjusting nut (9) with an internal thread (10) which is attached to an external thread (11) of a tubular body (2), 37) of the spring damper device (3) can be brought into screw engagement, the housing (4) being designed for releasable abutment against the adjusting nut (9) and having an inner recess (7) for forming a pressure chamber (8) which is in fluid connection with the passage (6) and the inner recess (7) forming a pressure wall (24), the fluid admission of which causes a force acting on the housing (4) in the axial longitudinal direction and the housing (4) has an abutment surface (54) designed for spring force admission by the spring device.

A bushing for an independent suspension assembly, said suspension assembly being adapted to pivot relative to a trailer or a vehicle frame, the bushing comprising: a sleeve body having a substantially cylindrical outer surface for engaging the suspension assembly; and an inner bore of the sleeve body extending along a first longitudinal axis, said first axis being eccentrically disposed with respect to a second longitudinal axis of the cylindrical outer surface; wherein during use the bore is adapted for engaging a spindle and allowing the suspension assembly to pivot relative to the spindle.

A lift option kit that allows the user to alter the vertical suspension lift of a vehicle.

A method for producing a mounting arrangement for a link of a motor vehicle suspension that is or can be pivotably mounted on a subframe of the motor vehicle, having the following steps: providing the subframe, which has a first and a second mounting flange for mounting the link; providing at least one intermediate product of a bracket; integrally joining the intermediate product to a mounting flange of the subframe by welding; forming an elongated hole in the intermediate product by punching of the same; and forming at least one stop on the intermediate product for an adjusting eccentric for chassis adjustment by stamping the intermediate product.

A vehicle suspension position adjustment arrangement including a frame member having a plurality of apertures, and a trailing arm having a first end pivotally coupled to a slide member and a second end biased away from the frame member. A locking pin movable between an unlocked position where the locking pin is withdrawn from one of the apertures and the slide member is free to slide along the frame member, and a locked position where the locking pin engages one of the apertures preventing the slide member from sliding along the frame member, and a plurality of sensors spaced along the frame member, wherein a single sensor of the plurality of sensors is configured to sense both the locking condition of the locking pin and the location of the locking pin along the frame member.

A shock absorber includes: a damper tube accommodating a piston in a reciprocally movable manner; a suspension spring for urging the damper tube and a piston rod in opposite directions; a first male screw provided on an outer peripheral surface of the damper tube; a first nut screwed into the first male screw so as to enable a spring load of the suspension spring to be adjusted; a second nut screwed into the first male screw so as to enable a position of the first nut in an axial direction of the damper tube to be fixed; a second male screw having a reverse screw configuration to the first male screw and provided on the outer peripheral surface of the damper tube; and a damper head screwed into the second male screw so as to enable the damper head to cover one end portion of the damper tube.

Example apparatuses and techniques have been presented for towing tracked vehicles at high speeds without various deficiencies and for allowing a vehicle to be configured to extend supplemental wheels from a storage configuration into a ground support configuration in which the vehicle is able to make use of the supplemental wheels for additional ground support.

The present disclosure relates to a semi-active stabilizer device which may adjust the rigidity of a stabilizer bar according to a traveling state of a vehicle, and may include a first stabilizer bar, a second stabilizer bar, an outer housing which has a hollow portion formed therein, an inner housing which is inserted into the hollow portion of the outer housing to rotate relatively, an elastic member which applies an elastic force so that the outer housing and the inner housing return to original positions thereof upon relative rotation, and a stopper which limits the inner housing to rotate relatively only within a certain angular range upon the relative rotation, thereby improving riding comfort upon traveling on a straight road, and improving traveling stability upon traveling on a curved road.
