    摘要: A kit and method for raising the static height of the front end of a vehicle having independent front wheel suspension while substantially retaining the suspension geometry of the front wheels. Pairs of bracket adaptors and modified upper control arms of a length shorter than the factory control arms are used. The bracket adaptors interfit with factory brackets and facilitate the attachment of the inboard ends of an A-frame upper control arm with a pivot axis at least about one inch lower and at least about one inch outboard of the factory location. The inboard ends of each modified upper control arm are suitably pivotally linked to the bracket adaptors, and the outboard end is conventionally attached via the upper ball joint to the spindle plate. Replacement coil springs, preferably variable rate springs, raise the front end vehicle height about three inches; however, the geometry provided through such relocation avoids subjecting the tires to excessive positive camber when cycling occurs to absorb a dip in the roadway or the like.

    摘要: A vehicle wheel support device for use in a wheel alignment assembly including a floating plate assembly movably supported relative to the base upon which a vehicle is positioned. The floating plate assembly includes a pair of rollers disposed in a fixed non-parallel orientation with respect to each other. The floating plate assembly is movably positioned such that a vehicle wheel may be located between the pair of rollers to isolate the vehicle wheel from the base so as to stabilize all forces acting thereon and wherein the rollers rotate the wheel so that various wheel alignment parameters may be measured.

    摘要: A trailing arm suspension, alone or in combination with a vehicle having a vehicle frame supported by an axle with ground engaging wheels. The trailing arm suspension comprises a pair of spaced trailing arm assemblies, each of which includes a trailing arm pivotally mounted to a the vehicle frame and a spring operably coupling the trailing arm to the frame to resist the pivotal movement of the trailing arm. A pneumatic lift mechanism is provided to selectively raise the trailing arm relative to the frame. The axle has at least a portion of which that is hollow and defines a pressurized air reservoir, which is coupled to the spring and/or the pneumatic lift mechanism to provided pressurized air for altering the resistance of the spring and/or actuating the pneumatic lift mechanism to selective lift the trailing arm.

    摘要: A mounting for a shock absorber or a pneumatic spring of a wheel suspension at the body of a vehicle is supported by bearing bolts, which are held in a bearing element. The shock-absorber strut is set at an angle and, with its free upper end and with interposing the supporting element, is held in a bearing bushing, which has two bearing bolts, which lie opposite to one another on a swiveling axis and which are supported cardanically and/or pivotably in a support fastened to the vehicle. The air spring is mounted only over the bearing element, the supporting element being omitted.
