Energy storing suspension components having an end configured to include an eye are disclosed in combinations with bushings for use in suspension systems for wheeled vehicles and trailers. The energy storing suspension components include an axle seat portion, an end, and a limb extending between the axle seat portion and the end. The limb includes a first taper wherein the limb decreases in width as the limb extends toward the end, a second taper wherein the limb decreases in thickness as the limb extends toward the end, wherein along the limb there is at least a portion where both the first taper and second taper are present, and a third taper that is further from the axle seat portion than the first taper and wherein the limb increases in width as the limb extends toward the end.

A spring carrier of a motor vehicle axle, particularly of a portal axle, with a longitudinal portion (1) and a flange portion (2) which adjoins the one end of the longitudinal portion (1) and which has a flange (8). The longitudinal portion (1) includes at least one fastening point for fastening to a shock absorber and/or to a suspension. At least the longitudinal portion (1) of the spring carrier arm comprises a lower shell (4) and an upper shell (3) of metallic material or of a plastic with or without fiber reinforcement, the shell edges (6, 7) thereof extending along the neutral bending axis (5) of the spring carrier arm, and the lower shell (4) and upper shell (3) are connected to one another along the neutral bending axis (5) of the spring carrier arm by bonding engagement.

A component for a vehicle suspension system that includes a circular first housing that defines a first aperture. A first intermediate portion is coupled to a first end portion of the first housing and has a length that is less than a diameter of the first aperture. A circular second housing is coupled to the first intermediate portion and defines a second aperture. A second intermediate portion is coupled to a second end portion of the first housing. A bracket is coupled to the second intermediate portion, the bracket has a first surface, a second surface, and a plurality of apertures defined on the first surface. The plurality of apertures extend from the first surface to the second surface.

A method of manufacturing a stabilizer having a through hole at each of both ends by performing forging processing on a base material includes: a recess forming step of forming a recess at a through hole formation position corresponding to the through hole of the stabilizer at an end of the base material; and a through hole forming step of forming a through hole by performing perforation at the through hole formation position including the recess.
