Abstract: A vehicle suspension apparatus includes a first, outer telescoping component and a second, inner telescoping component. The outer telescoping component includes an outer sleeve and an outer tubular member telescoped therein for movement along an axis of the outer telescoping component. The inner telescoping component includes an inner sleeve and an inner telescoping member telescoped therein for movement along an axis of the inner telescoping component. The inner telescoping component axis is aligned with the outer telescoping component axis. The inner sleeve is fixedly attached to one of the outer sleeve and the outer tubular member. The inner telescoping member is fixedly attached to the other of the outer sleeve and the outer tubular member. A bracket is configured to fixedly attach the suspension device to a vehicle support member. The outer tubular member includes an attachment member which is configured to pivotally receive an end of a leaf spring.
