Separated primary spring and secondary leaf suspension for vehicle

A vehicle suspension arrangement for a vehicle having a chassis rail and a transverse axle arranged substantially orthogonal to the chassis rail, the vehicle suspension arrangement comprising:

• a primary leaf spring having a plan view longitudinal configuration and a first end for pivotally coupling to the chassis rail of the vehicle at a first primary pivot coupling, and a distal second end for pivotally coupling to the chassis rail of the vehicle at a second primary pivot coupling;
• a primary leaf spring coupler for coupling said primary leaf spring to a first upper region of the transverse axle;
• a secondary leaf spring having a plan view longitudinal configuration, a first end for pivotally coupling to the chassis rail of the vehicle at a secondary pivot coupling, and a second end for coupling to the transverse axle;
• a secondary leaf spring coupler for coupling said secondary leaf spring to a second upper region of the transverse axle, the second upper region of the transverse axle being transversely inward with respect to the first upper region;
• wherein the entire length of the plan view longitudinal configuration of said secondary leaf spring extends in a single substantially linear direction that is arranged to be angularly displaced with respect to the plan view longitudinal configuration of said primary leaf spring, the first primary pivot coupling and the secondary pivot coupling being arranged to be substantially coplanar.
