An axle carrier for a motor vehicle is disclosed having at least two attachment points, a metallic upper shell and a lower shell of fiber composite material coupled to the metallic upper shell. A first load path extending through the metallic upper shell between the at least two attachment points in an edge region, and a second load path shorter that the first load path extending through the lower shell.

The invention relates to a subframe for a motor vehicle, comprising an upper shell, a lower shell made from a fiber-reinforced plastic and a rib structure for stiffening the upper shell, wherein the upper shell is composed of a metallic material and the rib structure is composed of a plastic reinforced with short fibers and is formed integrally from the lower shell. The invention furthermore relates to a method for producing a subframe, wherein the lower shell together with the rib structure connected integrally therewith is formed from a stack of plies of a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic and joined to an upper shell made from a metallic material.

A stabilizer coupling for use in a roll stabilizer for a motor vehicle has at least one actuator, with the actuator being formed by an outer profile element and an inner profile element. An elastically deformable body is arranged between the outer profile element and the inner profile element. The outer profile element is formed as a hollow profile component, in particular a hollow profile component constructed as an extruded profile and made from a light metal alloy.
