A hold down system for a vehicle is described. The vehicle comprises a chassis biased by a suspension in a first direction away from a supporting surface. The hold down system comprises a base for attachment to a linkage arm of the suspension. The hold down system can further include a pin slidably coupled with the base, where the pin is extensible in a second direction away from the base. The pin can be biased in a third direction opposite the second direction and toward the base. The hold down system can also include a latching mechanism for attachment to the vehicle. The latching mechanism can be configured to latch the pin when the pin is extended in the second direction away from the base, and to release the pin in the third direction toward the base when the chassis is deflected in a fourth direction opposite the first direction.
