ABSTRACT:
A torsion bar mounting arrangement for a vehicular suspension system, including a lower control arm formed to include a trunk portion and a pair of leg portions, with a relatively wide trough formed in the upper surface of the trunk portion, a load reaction member having a narrow body portion inserted between the leg portions and seated in the trough, and a preloaded torsion bar secured to the head portion of the load reaction member, with some fore-and-aft movement of the trough permitted relative to the body portion of the load reaction member in response to load inputs into the system, resulting in improved ride characteristics while virtually eliminating bending of the torsion bar.
