ABSTRACT:
The present disclosure concerns an independent wheel suspension for motor vehicles having a wheel support member that is connected to vehicle body structure by upper and lower suspension arms so as to accommodate jounce and rebound movement of the wheel. In accordance with the disclosure one of the arms is connected to the wheel support member by means of a ball joint which has its socket secured to the arm and the shank of its ball stud secured to the wheel support member by a resilient bushing. The annular rubber element of the bushing isolates vibration and road noises occurring at the wheel support member from being transmitted through the suspension arm to the vehicle body structure. It also permits wheel compliance in response to minor impacts upon the road wheel.
