A suspension system for a motor vehicle that controls the torque reaction of the rigid drive axle and the longitudinal position of the drive axle in relationship to the vehicle chassis comprising a chassis, a rigid drive axle, an opposite axle and road wheels attached to the ends of each axle, a torque reaction control link positioned longitudinally of the motor vehicle between the road wheels and with one or two pairs of longitudinal control arms pivotally attached to the rigid drive axle, positioned longitudinally of the motor vehicle. The torque reaction control link is positioned at a lower elevation than the pairs of longitudinal control arms and between and proximate the road wheels for controlling torque reaction of said rigid drive axle, in combination with said at least one torque reaction control link. Each pair of longitudinal control arms are pivotally connected to the rigid drive axle at one end and to the chassis at the other end, so that each of which longitudinal control arms has an effective projection line longitudinally of the motor vehicle. The torque reaction control link is pivotally connected to the rigid drive axle at one end and to the chassis at the other, so that the torque reaction control link has a longitudinal plane that extends longitudinally of the motor vehicle and whereby the effective projection lines of the pair or pairs of longitudinal control arms and the longitudinal plane of the torque reaction control link intersect each other forming a convergent angle at an instant center located closer to the opposite axle than to the rigid drive axle and that when a force moves the rigid drive axle vertically up the convergent angle does not increase.
