It also includes strain measuring means mounted in the trunnion shaft between the attaching means and the axle spring assembly for measuring changes in the shaft. In one embodiment the means for attaching the trunnion shaft to the vehicle frame is a trunnion hanger mounted inboard of the axle spring assembly. In another embodiment the attaching means is a clevis bracket which straddles the axle spring assembly.
