Abstract: An improved suspension system characterized by an axle, a leaf-spring assembly having a spring member extended transversely of the axle and mounted thereon, and an air-bag assembly interposed between the frame of a vehicle and one end of the leaf-spring assembly. The air-bag assembly includes a bracket disposed above the leaf-spring assembly and affixed to the frame, a pivotal arm having one end connected to the bracket in coplanar relation with the leaf-spring assembly, an expansible air bag formed of an elastomeric material interposed between the distal end of the pivotal arm and the frame of the vehicle, and a roller seated on the leaf-spring assembly and pinned to said armin fixed spatial relationship with the opposite ends thereof.
