Abstract
A suspension axle has beams that are bolted onto the axle. There are plates that are rigidly affixed to the front and rear of the axle with indentations on the inner end of the main portions and secondary portions of the beams that are sized to fit tightly over the plates. Bolts extend through openings in the axle end of the main portion and secondary portion and also through the plates and through the axle. The bolts have nuts thereon to securely hold the main portion and secondary portion in contact with the axle.
