Abstract
A vehicle suspension system may include hydraulic actuators, first and second conduits, and first and second switch valves. Each actuator includes a cylinder and a piston that divides an interior of the cylinder into compression and rebound chambers. First and third ports of each cylinder are openings to the rebound chamber. Second and fourth ports of each cylinder are openings to the compression chamber. The first conduit connects the third port of a first actuator with the fourth port of a second actuator. The second conduit fluidly connects the third port of the second actuator with the fourth port of the first actuator. The first switch valve is connected to the first and second ports of the first one of the hydraulic actuators. The second switch valve is connected to the first and second ports of the second one of the hydraulic actuators.
