The invention relates to an axle support, also referred to as a subframe, for a motor vehicle, having at least two longitudinal members, at least one cross member joining together the longitudinal members, at least two attachment points for attaching a steering gear housing to the axle support and a device for positioning the steering gear housing on the axle support prior to mounting of the steering gear housing on the axle support. In order for such an axle support to offer a cost-effective and rapid positioning of a steering gear housing, the device for positioning the steering gear housing according to the invention has at least two mounts, one mount of which being attached to one of the longitudinal members and/or the cross member and another mount of the mounts being attached to another of the longitudinal members and/or the cross member, wherein the respective mount has at least two indentations for receiving positioning protrusions provided on the steering gear housing.

The invention relates to a chassis suspension component with a bracket made from a formable base material, preferably sheet steel, and comprising at least one slot for receiving a connecting bolt and at least one stop for an eccentric disc which is or can be connected rotationally fixedly to the connecting bolt. In order to be able to produce the eccentric stop process-reliably and economically without the risk of crack formation, the invention proposes to provide a tab formed from the base material and folded relative to a body portion of the suspension component and having a recess surrounding the slot, which recess defines two elongate stop faces running parallel to each other, wherein the stop faces serve as a stop for the eccentric disc. The invention also relates to a method for producing a chassis suspension component.

The invention relates to a chassis component having a mount which is produced from a formable basic material and includes at least one slot for receiving a connection bolt for connecting a steering arm and at least one stop for an eccentric disc which is or can be connected in a torsionally stiff sense to the connection bolt. In order for it to be possible to produce the stop for the eccentric disc in a reliable and cost-effective manner without the risk of crack formation, the invention provides for a recess to be molded into the basic material, which recess defines a peripheral edge region and a base enclosed by the edge region, the base including the slot and the edge region including two oblong surfaces extending in parallel with one another which act as the stop for the eccentric disc.
