A bump stopper can be provided for a vehicle. The bump stopper includes an upper part, a lower part, and a connection member. The upper part and the lower part are stacked vertically and have double density. The connection member is positioned at an interface between the upper part and the lower part to connect the upper part and the lower part.

A spring element, in particular a jounce bumper, for a jounce bumper assembly, contains a longitudinal axis, a base body extending along the longitudinal axis, and an end portion configured for being brought into contact with a vehicle part moving relatively to the spring element. The base body is elastically deformable between an uncompressed basic state and a compressed state in which the base body is at least partially compressed in the direction of the longitudinal axis. The end portion contains a circumferential outer surface, and at least one recess in the circumferential outer surface. The recess extends inwards and defines a hollow space in the base body.

A bearing unit (1) for a suspension strut (2) of a motor vehicle (3), has at least the following components: a guide ring (4) having a guide axis (5) for a wheel spring (6); a cap (7) with a damper holder (8) for a damper block (9); a bumpstop holder (10) for a bumpstop (11); an axial bearing (12) with a bearing pitch circle (13) for supporting the guide ring (4) on the cap (7) and for low-friction rotation about the guide axis (5) relative to the cap (7). The bumpstop holder (10) is formed integrally by the cap (7).

A bushing for a wheel suspension adapted to connect a control bar to a structure of a vehicle, where the bushing comprises a first rotational center for the control bar having a first angular rotation range, where the bushing comprises a second rotational center for rotational angles outside of the first angular rotation range.

A two-piece limit strap clamp for use with a shock absorber and a limit strap retention device is provided. The pieces couple together around the upper end of a shock absorber. The clamp has a protrusion that extends outwardly and is adapted for attachment of the top end of a limit strap. The lower end of the limit strap may be attached to a mounting tab that is coupled to the lower mounting bracket of the shock absorber. Also disclosed is a limit strap with a tether coupled to a spring of the shock absorber to prevent the limit strap from bowing out when the shock absorber is compressed. A method of use of a limit strap with a tether is also disclosed.

A leaning vehicle includes a vehicle body, a plurality of wheels, a lean mechanism, and a lean stopper mechanism. The wheels include a left front wheel and a right front wheel. The lean mechanism causes the left front wheel and the right front wheel to lean about a front-rear direction as a rotation center when the vehicle body leans about the front-rear direction as a rotation center. The lean stopper mechanism prevents a lean angle from exceeding a limit angle. in a plan view, an area bounded by lines connecting contact positions of ground and tires of the plurality of wheels is referred to as a grounding surface inner area, and a gravity center is positioned in the grounding surface inner area in a state where the lean angle reaches the limit angle.
