Abstract
A chassis component for a wheel suspension, having a strut arrangement with at least one strut which has a profile with an open cross-section. The at least one strut has a profile base and two wall sections which extend away from the base. An end of the strut has an articulation point that receives a first joint component having a spherical joint body and a second joint component which holds the joint body so as to rotate and/or pivot. A first joint accommodation aperture and a second joint accommodation aperture are arranged, in the area of the articulation point, opposite one another. The joint body is positioned via a circular-segment-shaped fastening element arranged on the joint body between the joint accommodation apertures. The joint accommodation apertures and the joint body positioned between them are integrated in a joint housing produced by overmolding, which forms the second joint component.
