Abstract
A vehicle suspension system includes a hydraulic anti-roll mechanism in which a pair of suspension arms ( ), on opposite sides of the vehicle, are mounted to the vehicle body pivots ( ). A pair of hydraulic struts ( ) are connected between the suspension arms and the body ( ). The struts are asymmetrically mounted so that one is inboard of its suspension arm pivot and the other is outboard of its suspension arm pivot. The two lower chambers of the struts ( ), through which the connecting rods ( ) of the pistons extend, are hydraulically interconnected, and so are the two upper chambers.
