A method of manufacturing a reaction rod for use in connecting a chassis ( 21 ) of a vehicle with a wheel axle housing ( 22 ) of the vehicle. The reaction rod comprises a rod ( 1 ) with two end portions, two housings ( 2,3 ), each of which can be securely connected with its rod end portion, and two attachments pieces ( 8,9 ), each of which extends through its passage ( 4,5 ) of the housings ( 2,3 ). The attachment pieces ( 8,9 ) are arranged to be attached to the chassis ( 21 ) and the wheel axle housing ( 22 ) respectively. The distance between reference points ( 16,17 ) of the respective attachment pieces ( 8,9 ) establishes a functional length (F) of the reaction rod. The method comprises the steps of manufacturing the housings by stamping and bending of a plate, manufacturing the attachment pieces ( 8,9 ) with a clearance relative to the passages ( 4,5 ) inserting the attachment pieces ( 8,9 ) in the respective passages ( 4,5 ), mounting the attachment pieces ( 8,9 ) in a jig, the distance between the reference points ( 16,19 ) corresponding to the functional length (F), and attaching the housings ( 2,3 ) to the rod ( 1 ). A reaction rod with housing manufactured from a plate. |
