hey everyone, I have had a lot of brainstorm moments in the past and I figured a design for suspension on AYP tractors.
Front:
Suspension ideas! Front_10

Rear:
Suspension ideas! Suspen10

I think that this is a stout design for this because its simple easy, or TD's K,I,S,S principle.

Be sure to incorporate wear plates or lube points in the open center

Maybe some bars from the frame to the bottom of the front axle with rod ends so the axle doesn't fold under the frame. Everything else looks good
