<p>A control arm for an automotive suspension is formed from three basic elements namely a first arm element (16), a second arm element (18) and a central bushing assembly (24) to which the arm elements (16, 18) are rigidly attached. The central busing assembly (24) comprises means (30) for mounting on a wheel carrier (14) and other means (28) for controllably permitting wheel recession and resiliently resisting forward rotation of the wheel carrier during braking. The individual arm elements (16, 18) may be fabricated by a forging, casting, flame cutting, or other methods.</p> |
