Rigid axle, Salisbury type. 5 link location with parallel short upper and long lower trailing arms and a Panhard rod between axle and under body. 16mm decoupled stabiliser bar, 30.2mm diameter dampers

So there must be versions available with attachment points for 5 link suspension. As this has to go under a "UTE" flatbed it won't be too tall, one hopes.

OK all our TMs in Australia, can you find out more>
