Abstract
A rear suspension having an axle with a generally U-shaped or V-shaped twist beam is provided. The twist beam on its extreme ends is penetrated by the corresponding control arms. The control arms of the present invention penetrate through apertures provided into the twist beam. The first and second walls of the twist beam are brought toward one another to allow the control arm to penetrate through the respective first and second apertures provided in the walls of the twist beam. After insertion through the walls of the twist axle, the twist axle is allowed to angularly expand again to its free state wherein it locks the twist beam to the control arm. A slight weld may be added to further ensure the connection of the control arm to the twist beam.
