ABSTRACT:
An independent wheel suspension for a motor vehicle according to the present disclosure includes a wheel support member that rotatably supports a road wheel, a laterally extending suspension arm connecting the support member to vehicle body structure and a vertically extending telescopic suspension strut which has its upper end connected to the body structure and its lower end connected to the wheel support member. An elastomeric sleeve surrounds the lower end of the strut and is enclosed by a C-shape clamp that secures the strut to the wheel support member. The elastomeric sleeve permits limited relative movement between the wheel support member and the strut whereby wheel vibrations and noise are isolated from the suspension strut and the vehicle body.
