  • ADJUSTABLE SUSPENSION ASSEMBLIES AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
    Publication number: 20260316510
    Abstract: A vehicle comprises a frame supported by ground engaging members. A prime mover is supported by the frame operably coupled to at least one of the ground engaging members. The prime mover is operable in a first condition and a second condition. A first suspension is coupled between at least one ground engaging member and the frame. A stabilizer bar is coupled between the first suspension and the frame and operable in a first operating state and a second operating state. A controller operates the prime mover between the first condition and the second condition and the stabilizer bar between the first operating state and the second operating state. The controller alters the stabilizer bar from the first operating state to the second operating state in response to the controller changing the prime mover between the first condition and the second condition.
