A composite suspension pivot where plain bushes or bearings 4 fitted into moving spool 3 and bearing on pivot journal 1 are supplemented by elastomeric elements (for example O-rings) 5 that provide a damping force to the pivot by means of torsional shear or friction. The elastomeric elements also eliminate bearing play and seal the pivot by closing the gap between fixed pivot ears 2 and moving spool 3, this prevents the ingress of water or dirt. The elastomeric elements may be bonded to the pivot. The elastomeric elements may provide a hermetic seal.
