Abstract
A suspension system for supporting a vehicle body includes an axle and a mounting member that is coupled by a first coupling member to the axle. The mounting member is also coupled by a second coupling member to the axle. At least one of the first and second coupling members includes a mount damper that dampens loads transferred between the mounting member and the axle. The suspension system also includes a track bar that is coupled by a third coupling member to the vehicle body and that is coupled by a fourth coupling member to the mounting member.

A suspension system for supporting a vehicle body comprising:
- an axle;
- a mounting member that is coupled by a first coupling member to the axle, the mounting member also coupled by a second coupling member to the axle, at least one of the first and second coupling members including a mount damper that dampens loads transferred between the mounting member and the axle;
- and
- a track bar that is coupled by a third coupling member to the vehicle body and that is coupled by a fourth coupling member to the mounting member.
A method of manufacturing a suspension system comprising:
- coupling a mounting member to an axle via a first coupling member and via a second coupling member, at least one of the first and second coupling members including a mount damper that dampens loads transferred between the mounting member and the axle;
- coupling a track bar to a vehicle body;
- and
- coupling the track bar to the mounting member.
