A vehicle suspension system can include a trunnion tube positioned between two axles, and at least one spring set attached to the axles and rotatably attached to the trunnion tube. An outer diameter of the trunnion tube can be substantially equal to an outer diameter of the axles. In another example, two of the trunnion stands can be positioned entirely between two of the spring sets and welded to the trunnion tube. In yet another example, a ratio of a distance between axle centers to an outer diameter of the trunnion tube can be less than 11 to 1. In a further example, the trunnion tube and the axles may be made of a same material. In a still further example, a ratio of the outer diameter of the trunnion tube to a wall thickness of a bushing on the trunnion tube can be greater than 9 to 1.
