Smooth ride with power steering and leaf spring suspension
 
Hydrostatic power steering is standard on ProGatorTM Heavey-Duty Utility Vehicles. The steering system has its own dedicated 3.4 gpm hydraulic pump driven by the engine gear train to ensure that steering performance is maintained while other hydraulically driven implements are being used.
  • Tight turning clearance circle (16.3 ft for two-wheel-drive and 20.6-ft for four-wheel-drive) for excellent maneuverability
  • Smooth, responsive operation
    • Two-wheel-drive: 4.4 turns lock-to-lock, 18-in. (457-mm) turning radius
    • Four-wheel-drive: 3.3 turns lock-to-lock, 69-in. (1753-mm) turning radius
  • Completely sealed for long life
 
Beam-type suspension with dual leaf springs and shocks on front and rear provides:
  • Fully independent operation for all four wheels, providing enhanced performance in rough terrain
  • Superior strength and rigidity that keeps rear implements from bottoming out on frame stops at low loads, providing a smooth ride at or below payload capacity
  • Simple design that features a small parts count compared to A-arm style suspensions used on some competitive utility vehicles
