After thinking some more about implementing a better suspension design, I think that I like your suggestion most. It's certainly simple and seems largely proven, especially after watching 40's robot move. My concern is that there may not be enough travel available with how I've interpretted your implementation, though. A similar rubber ring inserted into the U-channel with a bolt spanning through its center horizontally means that there's only about 1/2" of travel in each direction. It seems that this would be sufficient in all but the worst of circumstances, so I'm curious to learn more about what 40's experiences were regarding overall travel of the suspension.

I'll post another screenshot as soon as I clean up the new iteration a bit more.
