A suspension for coupling a steer axle assembly (14) to a vehicle frame (10) is provided that provides lateral stability to the steer axle assembly without the use of a track rod or stabilizer bar. The suspension (16) includes a body (74,76) that is coupled to the axle beam (52) of the steer axle assembly (14). An arm (78,80) extends from the body (74,76) in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle and is coupled to the frame (10) at one end. The arm (78,80) is pivotable about an axis extending generally transversely to the frame rails (18,20) of the vehicle frame (10). A male guide member (112) is connected to the body (74,76) and is received within a female guide member (86) that is in turn disposed in an aperture (50) defined by a bracket (34) of the frame (10). The guide members (86,112) are free to move within the bracket (34) vertically or in the fore-aft direction, but are restricted from lateral movement.

L'invention concerne une suspension de couplage d'un ensemble d'essieu dirigé sur un châssis de véhicule assurant une stabilité latérale à l'ensemble d'essieu dirigé sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'apporter une tige de renfort ou une barre stabilisatrice. La suspension comprend un corps couplé à la poutre d'essieu de l'ensemble d'essieu dirigé. Un bras s'étend du corps en direction longitudinale du véhicule et est couplé au châssis sur une extrémité. Le bras pivote autour d'un axe s'étendant normalement de manière transversale vers les longerons de cadre du châssis du véhicule. Un élément de guide mâle est connecté au corps et est reçu dans l'élément de guide femelle qui est, à son tour, disposé dans une ouverture définie par un support du châssis. Les éléments guides peuvent, en toute liberté, se déplacer dans le support de manière verticale ou vers l'avant et l'arrière, mais sont limités dans leur mouvement latéral.
