Link Cab Air Suspensions – Cabmate Suspensions
The Cabmate® is a cab air suspension system for Class 7 and 8 trucks. It replaces the solid rear cab mounts with a cushion of air accomplished with air springs, shock absorbers, air leveling valves and strategically designed brackets for controlling cab movement. The Cabmate absorbs the road shock and vibration transmitted through the frame and solid cab mounts, thereby producing a quieter and smoother ride. Some applications require front cab mounts for better ride and to level the cab.
With a Cabmate installed on your truck, you will notice a reduction in road shock and backslap, annoying vibrations, back and kidney stress and cab maintenance. Cabmate improves cab environment for driver alertness and safety and increases the truck’s resale value.
Link also provides custom designed products for specialized applications such as Terminal Tractors, Extended Length Sleepers, Agricultural and Military Vehicles.
NOTE: Check units annually for worn shocks, air springs and control rods.
