ABSTRACT:
An independent rear wheel suspension for a motor vehicle having front wheel drive includes a telescopic strut rigidly mounted to a wheel support member and having its upper end pivotably mounted to the vehicle chassis. Two laterally extending control arms are pivotably connected at their outboard ends to the wheel support member and at their inboard ends to the vehicle chassis. The two control arms are longitudinally spaced apart. One arm has an integrally formed spring seat which seats a coil spring interposed between the arm and the vehicle chassis. One of the arms is mounted through two longitudinally spaced resilient bushings which controls the amount of wheel recession. In addition, the suspension can be constructed to control toe-in of the rear wheel during jounce of recession of the rear wheel.
