Abstract
An in-arm hydropneumatic suspension system includes a road wheel spindle connected to a vehicle hull. A road wheel arm has a spindle housing on one end supported by complementary tapered roller bearings for oscillation on the spindle; the opposite end of the road wheel arm defines an air spring housing for air spring means supporting the sprung mass of the vehicle. Damper components of the suspension unit are located remotely of the air spring at a location in the spindle housing so as to isolate the air spring operation from damper generated heat and wherein damper generated heat is dissipated from crankcase oil in the spindle housing directly to the hull.
