A control apparatus for heavy-duty vehicle lift axle/suspension systems, the control apparatus comprising a source of fluid pressure, a primary controller, and a secondary controller. The primary controller is located remote from the lift axle/suspension system. The secondary controller is located proximate to the lift axle/suspension system and the source of fluid pressure and is in fluid communication with the primary controller, the source of fluid pressure, and at least one lift bag and at least one air spring of the lift axle/suspension system. The secondary controller includes a pilot-operated poppet assembly and a discrete or integrated relay valve assembly wherein the primary controller transmits at least a pneumatic pilot signal to the secondary controller in order to selectively inflate and deflate the at least one air spring and the at least one lift bag to selectively control and maintain the extension and retraction of the lift axle/suspension system.

A bracket for mounting an anti-lock braking system sensor to a vehicle axle adjacent to a tone ring. The bracket includes a tubular body portion with a surface defining an opening for receiving the anti-lock braking system sensor. A pair of legs, each extending from the body portion. A pair of feet, each define an end portion of a respective one of the pair of legs. Each of the pair of feet is adapted for attachment to an exterior surface of the vehicle axle. The body portion, the pair of legs and the pair of feet are integrally formed as one-piece from powdered metal.
