Link’s 85K Air Link chassis suspension is unlike anything else on the market and is another example of Link’s ability to collaboratively engineer solutions to overcome unique challenges.

The Link 13.5K steerable auxiliary suspension with air disc brakes recently became available. Air disc brakes not only deliver better stopping power and reduced maintenance, but they also provide a more consistent performance, making them a better option.

When Link’s internship program started many years ago, it was primarily a way to fill staffing gaps. While those students gained some real-life work experience, we wanted to adapt the program so it would provide a practical, real-world experience that connects what our interns are learning in school back to what they are doing in …

We’ve entered the era of precision agriculture. Driving at increased speeds over rough and uneven terrain puts the driver, and all of the sophisticated equipment under increased stress. When trying to mitigate the trauma for the occupant and electronics, the cab suspension becomes invaluable.

At Link, we’re proud of our industry best lead times, and hold ourselves to a 48-hour window on standard auxiliary and cab suspension configurations from the time the purchase order is received until the product leaves our facility.

While all suspensions perform well when the truck is fully loaded, when partially loaded or without cargo, traditional rubber block and leaf spring suspensions will transmit every bump and depression. Occupants inside the cab will experience trauma to the body while mounted equipment will suffer stress cracks and jarring, increasing maintenance costs and decreasing vehicle …

This week was one of the most memorable at Link as we celebrated the production of our two millionth Cabmate suspension. Reaching the two millionth Cabmate milestone required everyone – from those on the plant floor to our administrative professionals to the sales team – showing up each day with a focus on customer satisfaction.

While Link takes great pride in the reliability and durability of our auxiliary suspensions, they need to be properly inspected every time you do a complete service job on the vehicle to keep them operating at peak performance. While steerable auxiliary suspensions are a little more complicated than non-steerable suspensions due to having more moving …

During NAFA, Link had a number of discussions with attendees centered on ergonomic concerns for the delivery person, and that’s where Link Ramps come into play. Although they are all transporting and delivering different types of equipment, what they all appreciate is the number of benefits our ramps provide, including productivity, safety, versatility, strength, and …

Although the Cabmate is engineered to be reliable and durable, it needs to be maintained. However, because it’s designed so well and isn’t easily visible during a routine inspection, it can suffer from the old adage “out of sight, out of mind” and not get the maintenance it needs until a driver complains the truck …
