Abstract

A wheel suspension assembly (1) for a vehicle, having a spring damper (2), a first transverse link (4), which has a first transverse link strut (4a) and a second transverse link strut (4b), a second transverse link (5), a first tie rod (6), a second tie rod (7), a reversing lever (8), a hub carrier (9), a steering gear (10) and a pendulum support (11). Each transverse link (4, 5) has an end (12), on the hub carrier side, and two ends (13, 13a, 13b), on the chassis side. The steering gear (10) is arranged in a plane with the first transverse link (4) and in a section between an end (13a) of the first transverse link strut (41) of the first transverse link (4), on the chassis side, and an end (13b) of the second transverse link strut (4b) of the first transverse link (4), on the chassis side.
