Compact mounting for trailing arm suspension - has arms extended past axle to form support for springs

摘要

The trailing arms (16) of the profile suspension are mounted on the outsides of the chassis frame and are extended past the axle (14) mounting. The extensions (23) are angled lower than the axle setting to form the lower supports for the springs (24), with no separate support plates required for the springs. - The trailing arms are joined at the extension ends by torsion bars for a stable suspension and represent a simple layout with few components. The direct mounting of the damper provides a high degree of stability.
