Historical and technical description:

The HVSS suspension was adopted by the United States and Allied forces in the final years of World War II, and subsequently used on vehicles for decades after the war (including during the Cold War). It was known for better cushioning and smoother handling in rough terrain. Mudguards were an important protective component, shielding sensitive vehicle parts from mud, stones, and water, thereby extending the lifespan of components and making technical servicing easier.
