RideStar aboard midi bus

ArvinMeritor's Commercial Vehicle Systems' Worldwide Suspension Systems division has announced that its RideStar RIS10 double-wishbone independent front suspension will be part of the new Blue Bird Ultra LF low-entry midi bus, available throughout North America beginning in September 2002. ArvinMeritor also will supply the rear-drive-axle Model RS21-145, which uses Quiet Ride gearing.

Working with Streparava, a European manufacturer of independent suspension systems, ArvinMeritor developed this independent front suspension system with a short-upper and long-lower wishbone design. For full details, contact ArvinMeritor, 2135 W Maple Rd, Troy MI 48084-7186.
