A vehicle suspension system for large vehicles includes at least one elastomeric bearing. The bearing includes at least one substantially cylindrical elastomeric portion (230), at least one substantially frustospherical elastomeric portion (232), and at least one non-extensible shim (208) disposed between and bonded to the substantially cylindrical elastomeric portion and the substantially frustospherical elastomeric portion.
