Abstract

A damper assembly comprises a inner damper and an outer damper in a telescopic configuration. The inner damper includes a first tube, a rod disposed at least partially within the first tube and coaxially therewith, and a main piston connected to the rod and slidably disposed within the first tube. The main piston divides an interior of the first tube into a first chamber and a second chamber. The outer damper includes a second tube disposed coaxially around the inner damper and a second piston connected to an axial end of the first tube and dividing an interior of the second tube into an upper oil chamber and a lower oil chamber, the second piston defining a second passage providing fluid communication between the upper oil chamber and the lower oil chamber. A displacement fluid passage provides fluid communication between the first chamber and the upper oil chamber.
