Patent attributes
A method of suspending a vehicle rear suspension assembly. The method employs at least one carrier device for facilitating the suspended support of the vehicle rear suspension assembly. The device includes a pair of rotatably coupled members having support legs that are passed at least partially through an existing opening in the vehicle rear suspension assembly. Projections extending from the support legs subsequently engage the vehicle rear suspension assembly structure, thereby providing support for the vehicle rear suspension assembly once suspended. A suspension element such as a cable or chain is coupled to the device and to a lifting mechanism, overhead conveyor, etc., for suspending the vehicle rear suspension assembly.
