Auto Suspension/Linked Systems
When the front and rear suspension units are inter-connected, the result is known as a linked suspension system.
The primary advantage of connecting front and rear springing in this way is that it greatly reduces any tendency of the car to pitching (rocking in a fore-and-aft direction); this gives the occupants a more nearly level ride. Outstanding examples of linked suspension on cars of recent times are the Moulton Hydrolastic and Hydragas suspensions used by Austin- Morris and the spring-linkage system used by Citroën on their smaller models.
