A damping piston is disposed on a double ended rod where the rods have different cross sectional areas to provide a differential area which is acted on by the liquid to spring support the weight of the vehicle. The end of the larger rod is connected to the vehicle chassis and bearings in each end of the cylinder transfer high bending moments due to wheel loads.
