A chassis arrangement (), in particular for utility vehicles (), with at least one axle () that extends transverse to the travel direction and carries wheels (). Movement of the axle () is damped by vibration dampers () provided with end sections (), and with at least one stabilizer assembly () that has two longitudinally extending sections () and a transverse section () that connects the longitudinally extending sections. An end section () of the vibration damper () is held directly on and is connected to the stabilizer assembly () on an extension () of the transversely orientated section () beyond the longitudinal section ().

Chassis system for a motor vehicle

A mounting arrangement () for mounting a trailer coupling to a tractor vehicle with a chassis that has a pair of rearwardly extending opposite left and right frame side members () that includes opposite left and right bearing blocks (). The opposite left and right bearing blocks () each have a support surface and a pivot bearing for being fixed directly or indirectly to the chassis of the tractor vehicle. A coupling saddle plate () is pivotally mounted from the opposite pivot bearings of the left and right bearing blocks (), while a diagonal cross brace () is provided between at least one of the left and right bearing blocks and a respective one of the transversely opposite right or left frame side members (). The diagonal cross brace () comprises at least one diagonally extending leg () that is adapted to extend laterally inwardly and diagonally downward from at least one of the left and right bearing blocks ().

Mounting arrangement for a trailer coupling

A support assembly for receiving a vehicle wheel suspension and adapted for mounting to a vehicle structure, is disclosed that includes: a transverse body () having opposite ends; a left hand anchoring strut () extending downwardly from the transverse body () to define a distal left hand lower end; a right hand anchoring strut () extending downwardly from the transverse body () to define a distal right hand lower end. Separately attached left hand and right hand external reinforcing elements () each extend from an adjacent one of the opposite ends of the transverse body () to a connecting area () adjacent the respective one of the left and right hand distal lower ends of the downwardly extending anchoring struts ().
