An improved seat suspension for reducing the jolt transferred from the seat of a vehicle to an operator when the vehicle "bottoms out". The improved seat suspension consists of a base unit connected to the vehicle, a support unit housing an attenuation unit for attaching the seat to the seat suspension, and a unit for operatively connecting the base and support units. The attenuation unit consists of at least one spring member which is contacted by a bumper attached to the connection unit just prior to the collision of the support unit with the base unit. By the bumper contacting the spring member, the effect of the collision on an operator occupying the seat is reduced.
