AIR BAG AND WALKING BEAM CONSTRUCTION ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A set of bag carrying saddles replace the leaf springs of conventional walking beam assemblies and operate in conjunction with a pair of linear stabilizing arms and shock absorbers thereby giving a traction distribution of approximately 25% per wheel. The use of walking beams in conjunction with shock absorbers gives a suspension system particularly suitable for extremely rough terrain because it operates on an approximate 2:1 ratio with the air bags. The saddles include vertical side plates having diagonal forwardly and upwardly extending front portions pivotally mounted to each chassis member of the vehicle and which are also pivotally connected to the walking beams intermediate the ends of the beams. Air bags operatively extend between the saddles and the chassis members.
