Cushion the Impact of Vocational Truck Suspension Selection
Every vocational truck suspension option comes with its own unique performance trade-offs. The best choice requires an understanding of how the trade-offs match up to your application requirements.
It is important that any mechanical suspension used in a high articulation environment is able to evenly distribute the load. Freightliner recommends a trunnion suspension, such as TufTrac, which is Daimler Truck North America’s proprietary suspension for Freightliner and Western Star Trucks.
