Overview

The Suspension System offered by Armour Master is designed to support the increased weight and altered load dynamics of armored vehicles. Armoring significantly affects vehicle stability, ride height, and handling, making reinforced suspension components essential for safe and reliable operation.

Armour Master provides component-based suspension solutions, allowing upgrades, replacements, or complete suspension system configurations based on vehicle requirements.

Suspension System Components

Armour Master supplies the following suspension system components suitable for armored and heavy-duty vehicles:

Suspension Kit

The Suspension Kit provides a coordinated set of suspension components designed to work together. It supports vehicle stability and load management when operating under increased armored weight.

Purpose:

  • Supports overall suspension upgrade

  • Improves load handling capability

  • Suitable for armored vehicle applications

 

Coils

Coil springs play a critical role in maintaining ride height and absorbing road impacts. In armored vehicles, reinforced coils are necessary to manage increased vehicle mass.

Purpose:

  • Supports vehicle weight

  • Maintains ride height

  • Absorbs road shock and vibration

Leaf Springs

Leaf springs are used in vehicles requiring additional load-carrying capacity. They provide structural support and durability for armored and heavy-duty vehicle applications.

Purpose:

  • Supports high load conditions

  • Enhances suspension durability

  • Suitable for rear suspension configurations

Shock Absorbers

Shock absorbers control suspension movement and reduce excessive bouncing or vibration. They are essential for maintaining ride comfort and vehicle stability under armored load.

Purpose:

  • Controls suspension movement

  • Improves ride stability

  • Enhances vehicle control

Sway Bars

Sway bars help reduce body roll during cornering and improve vehicle balance. In armored vehicles, sway bars contribute to improved handling and stability.

Purpose:

  • Reduces body roll

  • Improves vehicle balance

  • Enhances cornering stability

Shackles

Shackles connect leaf springs to the vehicle frame and allow controlled movement of the suspension under load.

Purpose:

  • Supports suspension articulation

  • Allows controlled suspension movement

  • Maintains structural alignment

Pins

Pins are essential suspension hardware components used to secure and align suspension parts.

Purpose:

  • Ensures secure component attachment

  • Maintains suspension alignment

  • Supports structural integrity

Bushes

Bushes reduce friction and absorb vibration between suspension components and the vehicle frame.

Purpose:

  • Reduces vibration

  • Minimizes wear between components

  • Improves suspension longevity

U-Bolts

U-Bolts are used to secure leaf springs and axle assemblies, ensuring stability under heavy loads.

Purpose:

  • Secures axle to suspension

  • Maintains alignment under load

  • Supports heavy-duty suspension setups

System Configuration Flexibility

Suspension system components can be:

  • Supplied individually

  • Installed as part of a suspension kit

  • Used during armored vehicle conversions

  • Replaced during maintenance or upgrades

This modular approach allows precise adaptation to different vehicle platforms and armoring requirements.
