Abstract

A suspension system for a large dump truck and the dump truck having a main frame with laterally spaced members each associated with a rear wheel mounting hub with a wheel on each of its sides. Each hub is attached to respective frame member by a leading arm pivotably attached at and a suspension strut pivotably attached to the hub at and to the frame. The connections of the hub allow for its limited pivotal movements about transverse and longitudinal axes relative to the frame. A Dump body is pivotally attached to the frame or to the rear and up from location.
