Think, think, think.... A-HA! I get it. I was hung-up on your term
"suspenders". You mean the large Technic springs (or as I would call them,
shock absorbers).
I used a 4595.dat Brick 1 x 2 x 2/3 with Studs on Sides between them so each
"suspender" hole fit over a side stud on that part. So the stud in the hole
holds it quite tightly.
If you have ldraw/ldlite installed, I have posted a dat file in lugnet.cad.dat
that shows the construction - minus the 'suspenders' which still are not
available yet.
