A suspension system is the assembly of springs, shock absorbers, and linkages connecting a vehicle to its wheels.
It absorbs road impacts, maintains tire contact with the surface, and provides a smoother ride: The truck's suspension system handled the rough terrain well.
The term extends to any mechanical system designed to cushion or isolate components from vibration.
