An axle tramp is a type of suspension system that helps to absorb shocks and reduce vibration. It is typically used in off-road vehicles, such as trucks and SUVs. The axle tramp works by attaching the axle to the vehicle’s frame with a series of springs or dampers. This helps to isolate the axle from the rest of the vehicle, which can help to protect the passengers and improve ride quality. Additionally, the axle tramp can help to improve traction by keeping the wheels in contact with the ground. This is especially beneficial in off-road conditions where the ground is uneven or slippery. Overall, the axle tramp is a vital part of the suspension system that helps improve the vehicle’s performance.
