Embodiments of the present invention describe a recreational vehicle spindle, including a spindle body having one or more sockets in the spindle body, and an upper attachment mechanism in contact with the spindle body and adapted to attach to a steering component. The spindle also includes a lower attachment mechanism in contact with the spindle body and adapted to attach to a ski or wheel. The one or more sockets are adapted to each receive a ball and stud forming one or more ball joints.

A stabilizer for a vehicle includes an actuator assembly configured to be coupled to a chassis of the vehicle and a ground pad coupled to the actuator assembly. The actuator assembly is selectively repositionable between an extended position and a retracted position to reconfigure the stabilizer between a lifting configuration and a storage configuration. The ground pad has a bottom surface configured to engage a support surface below the chassis. When the stabilizer is in the lifting configuration, the bottom surface of the ground pad engages the support surface. When the stabilizer is in the storage configuration, the ground pad is not in contact with the support surface.

The actuator assembly is selectively repositionable between a retracted position and a lifting position. The ground pad has a bottom surface configured to engage a support surface below the chassis. When the actuator assembly is in the lifting position, the bottom surface of the ground pad engages the support surface and the actuator assembly applies an upward force on the chassis, and when the actuator assembly is in the retracted position, the actuator assembly lifts the ground pad such that the ground pad is not in contact with the support surface.

A stabilizer for a vehicle includes an actuator assembly configured to be coupled to a chassis of the vehicle and configured to lift the vehicle. The actuator assembly is coupled to a ground pad having a bottom surface configured to engage a support surface below the chassis when the actuator assembly lifts the vehicle. An alignment member is configured to be coupled the chassis. The alignment member is configured to limit rotation of the ground pad. The actuator assembly is configured to move a surface of the ground pad into engagement with the alignment member to cause rotation of the ground pad relative to the chassis.

A motor vehicle independent rear-wheel suspension system including a left-hand and a right-hand transverse link, each articulated at an inner end on a chassis of the motor vehicle and fixedly connected at an outer end to a wheel carrier. The suspension system having a left-hand and a right-hand trailing arm unit. Each trailing arm unit articulated a front end on the chassis of the motor vehicle and at a rear end on a wheel carrier. Open installation space is formed between the trailing arm units and the transverse links for at least a partial accommodation of an electrical drive train.

A work vehicle, comprises: an operation section occupiable by an operator; a cabin accommodating the operation section; left and right suspension mechanisms via which a body of the work vehicle supports a left portion and a right portion of the cabin; and left and right lateral rods configured to allow the cabin to move upward and downward relative to the body and restrain the cabin from moving leftward and rightward relative to the body.
