A suspension module for use in a modular suspension system for a wheeled vehicle is provided. Each suspension module comprises a pair of parallel control arms 10, 20 coupled to a wheel hub 70, and utilises parallel linkage of these arms, to create a suspension wherein the wheels can be retractable and/or height adjustable. The suspension module achieves this using a pintle 60 to rotate the pair of control arms 10, 20 vertically and/or horizontally relative to the vehicle. Wherein the vertical rotations control the height of the wheel, and the horizontal rotations allow the wheels to be retractable.
