ABSTRACT:
A suspension strut assembly for a motor vehicle suspension including a telescopic damper which is connected at its ends to a wheel carrier and to part of the vehicle superstructure, and a wheel suspension spring which surrounds the damper and is seated at one end on a casing portion of the damper and at the other end effectively on a piston rod of the damper.
To facilitate replacement of worn parts without the need to dismount the entire strut, the connection of the damper to the vehicle superstructure is effected by means of an intermediate member having a bayonet-type or other form of releasable connection to an appropriately shaped aperture in the superstructure such that on release the intermediate member can be lifted out through the aperture, as can the inner part of a two-part thrust plate for the suspension spring, and a ring nut giving access to the internal parts of the damper.
