A seat suspension includes a first section and a second section which are moveably connected. A deformable isolator is located between the sections. The isolator is held in place by a retaining means such a ring, post and in other ways. The isolator is comprised of a plurality of gaps separating solid sections which cooperate to resist the movement of at least one of the sections. This may be accomplished by resisting the movement of the section as it is urged against the isolator.

What is claimed is: 1. A seat suspension comprising: a first section and an opposingly located second section, said first section being moveable relative to said second section; a deformable isolator in communication with said first and second sections; an actuator depending from said first section and in communication with said isolator; said isolator being adapted to resist movement of said first section and return said first section to an operating position; and said isolator also being engaged by an enclosure located on said second section. 2. A seat suspension comprising: a first section and an opposingly located second section, said first section being moveable relative to said second section; a deformable isolator in communication with said first and second sections; an actuator depending from said first section and in communication with said isolator; said isolator being adapted to resist movement of said first section and return said first section to an operating position; and said isolator also being adapted to create a resistance force which exponentially increases with movement of said first section. 3. A seat suspension comprising: First and second sections moveably connected; a deformable isolator located between said sections and held in place by a plurality of pins which extend into said isolator; and said isolator comprising a plurality of gaps separating solid sections which cooperate to resist movement of at least one of said first and second sections when one of said first or second sections is urged against said isolator. 4. A seat suspension comprising: First and second sections moveably connected; a deformable isolator located between said sections and engaged by an enclosure and at least one pin; and said isolator comprising a plurality of gaps separating solid sections which cooperate to resist movement of at least one of said first and second sections when one of said first or second sections is urged against said isolator. 5. The device of claim 4 wherein said enclosure surrounds an outer edge of said isolator. 6. The device of claim 4 wherein said enclosure is comprised of a plurality of segments. 7. The device of claim 4 wherein said gaps are larger in size near the center of said isolator. 8. The device of claim 4 wherein said isolator creates a resistance force which exponentially increases with increasing movement of said sections. 9. The device of claim 4 wherein said suspension resists fore and aft movement. 10. The device of claim 4 where said suspension resists vertical movement.
