Technical

  • No fixed steer axle spacing constraints, allowing the axle to be spec’d in the position that best suits the application
  • Air springs equally support one hundred percent of the vertical load, cushioning the driver by isolating impacts from the road and offering more protection to the chassis and equipment
  • Four-bar linkage design maintains correct steering geometry under all conditions, minimizing steering error caused by rough road, hard cornering and braking
  • Dual height control valves adjust to the load, resulting in a constant ride height and comfortable ride
  • System weight remains constant as steer axle spacing increases, offering an increasing weight advantage over competitive systems that require longer or larger components at higher axle spacings
  • Transverse torque rods increase lateral stability
  • Over-sized rubber bushings require no lubrication
