Abstract: A suspension and steering linkage for a front wheel of a tricycle type vehicle includes an upper and lower control arms joined by a pivot arm. The control arms are parallel and of the same length and are pivoted at the vehicle so as to move together in vertical arcuate movement with the wheel. A steering linkage engages the pivot arm to rotate the wheel about a near vertical axis. The wheel is mounted to exhibit camber when turned for steering. A shock strut is positioned at a distal end of the upper control arm and moves in reaction to vertical displacement of the wheel. Its position is such as to enable the shock to move through a reduced excursion with respect to that of the wheel.
