Mystery eight-legger suspension on Biglorryblog

Document Actions
...Courtesy of AtkiPete. So who can tell us about it?
AtkiPete wants to pick the assorted brains of Biglorryblog's beloved anorak army and has sent me this together with the request: "G'day Brian,I was just reading your recent posting about 8 wheelers and found this old ad for a different type of front suspension setup. Wondering if your experts know of this or similiar setups? Cheers Pete."
 
Well I'm no expert Pete but reverse multi-leaf spring set-up this looks like it would be far more at home supporting a tandem axle bogie on a tipper or a trailer! Something about the centre pivot point looks very familiar..almost Scania-like..or am I imagining it? So who can comment on this eh?
