History: The Western Mountain Buckboard is a quintessentially American vehicle born on farms in the mountainous regions of the northeastern US It moved west with the pioneers to new lands.
not colonized.
The original versions were nothing more than a seat bolted to a long springboard attached to two axles.
Because it didn't have metal springs, its suspension came from the springy buckboards that made up the floor and the body.
Eventually, it has become a versatile and useful work vehicle.
Over time, more refinements have been added for fun and enjoyment.
With the addition of the front and rear Shuler spring, the Model Trailways is an example of this evolution.
The rear shuler spring combines the characteristics of the coil spring and the torsion spring.
This three-point suspension gave the vehicle a lot of flexibility and allowed it to withstand the rigors of rough, mountainous terrain.
