Provided is a method for manufacturing a ball joint including a ball-seat molding step for forming a ball seat assembly by using, as a core, a ball section of a ball stud, the ball section of which is integrally provided in advance at one end portion of a stud section, and insert-molding a ball seat made of resin to cover at least a portion of the ball section present on an opposite side to the stud section, and a housing molding step for insert-molding a housing made of resin by using, as a core, the ball section partially covered by the ball seat of the ball seat assembly.

An additional spring for a shock absorber of a motor vehicle and a damper bearing for a shock absorber of a motor vehicle. In this case, the additional spring includes a first spring body which has a central hole for guiding through a piston rod of the shock absorber. The first spring body is formed spherical on an end face. The damper bearing according to the invention comprises a cylindrical receptacle space in which the first spring body of the additional spring is retained at least in certain regions, and is distinguished in that the receptacle space has a spherically formed base surface formed corresponding to the end face of the first spring body.

A stabilizer unit for a vehicle and a method for manufacturing such a stabilizer unit, the stabilizer unit comprising a stabilizer bar, at least one bearing including a flange, made of plastic material, including at least one retaining portion and one groove including a cradle portion, wherein the stabilizer bar passes through the groove of the flange and is secured to the flange by means of a vulcanized elastomer layer.

A link arm member of the present invention is used in a vehicle for connecting a suspension and a stabilizer, and includes: a support bar that is sealed by plastically deforming a hollow metal pipe at both ends thereof; and a housing part made of resin that is arranged at each end of the support bar and has a receiving hole for receiving a ball part of a ball stud to which the suspension or the stabilizer is fixed, wherein the housing part is formed by insert molding with the support bar.

Provided herein are polyamide compositions including one or more semi-crystalline polyamides and either an amorphous polyamide or a semi-crystalline copolyamide such as PA66/6. The provided compositions are particularly useful as vibration isolators more effective at high-temperature noise and harshness damping than conventional polyamide compositions. Also provided are methods for making the provided compositions, and articles that include the provided compositions.
