A spring rear isolator has a base to couple the isolator with a suspension module. A spring seat, coupled with the base, has an index pilot hub to receive a pig tail end of a coil spring. The index pilot hub has an overall circular cylindrical shape with a lobe that peripherally extends from a portion of the cylinder. The lobe fixes position of the coil spring in the spring seat. The index pilot hub extends axially from the base into a second revolution of the coil spring.

Contact noise generated between a striker cap mounted on a strut and a jounce bumper connected to a shock tower is reduced by providing an axial projection on the roof of the striker cap. The projection progressively displaces and compresses the elastomeric jounce bumper material and thereby avoids large compressive impulse forces and associated noise generation.

A torque box assembly for mounting between a vehicle frame side rail and a body side sill for supporting a spool type trailing link isolator. The torque box assembly includes two interconnected box members and two mounting flanges, with the spool type trailing link resiliently connected to one of the box members.
