A suspension assembly for a vehicle may be provided. The suspension assembly may include a strut operably coupled to a body of the vehicle, a stabilizer bar operably coupled to the strut to reduce body roll, a strut stabilizer bar link to operably couple the stabilizer bar to the strut; and a strut stabilizer bar link bracket. The suspension assembly may include the strut stabilizer bar link bracket extending from a midplane of the strut containing a longitudinal axis of the strut to operably couple the strut stabilizer bar link to the strut regardless of a side of the vehicle on which the strut is located. The strut stabilizer bar link may include a first ball joint to operably couple the strut stabilizer bar link to the strut stabilizer bar link bracket.

Midplane-mounted stabilizer bar link bracket

An assembly includes a leadscrew defining a central axis, a strut movable along the leadscrew upon rotation of the leadscrew, a camber angle of a wheel changeable according to movement of the strut along the leadscrew, and a motor drivably connected to the leadscrew, the motor defining a motor axis, wherein the central axis of the leadscrew is transverse to the motor axis.

Enhanced vehicle stability

An assembly includes a suspension link, an arm, an actuator, and a lock. The arm is connected to the suspension link. The arm includes a plurality of holes. The actuator is connected to the arm. The lock includes a pin releasably engageable with the plurality of holes of the arm.

Vehicle suspension

An assembly includes a suspension link, a worm screw, a worm wheel rotatably engaged with the worm screw, and an arm fixed to the worm wheel and connected to the suspension link.

Vehicle suspension adjustment

An assembly includes a leadscrew, a strut, and a motor. The strut is movable along the leadscrew upon rotation of the leadscrew. A camber angle of a wheel is changeable according to movement of the strut along the leadscrew. The motor is drivably connected to a rotating shaft that is mounted to the leadscrew.
