Abstract
There is disclosed a vehicle suspension unit in the form of a swivel bearing for an axle unit and comprising a wheel bearing assembly, a shock absorber leg connection and a hollow connecting element between the bearing housing and the shock absorber leg connection. The shock absorber leg connection comprises a substantially closed sleeve which receives the shock absorber leg, and a threaded fastener which extends transversely through the sleeve and, upon tightening, causes the sleeve to exert a clamping action around the shock absorber leg. The unit is formed as a one-piece casting, or from pressed sheet metal.
