Abstract

In the particular embodiments described in the specification, the arms of a U-shaped vehicle stabilizer are connected by coupling rods to the lower transverse links on opposite sides of the vehicle and the coupling rods consist of a head to accommodate the stabilizer arm, a coupling rod pin received in the head and extending through a spherical bearing having an opening in the shape of a double-truncated cone and being connected to the lower transverse link. The coupling rod pin clamps opposed spherical surfaces in sliding relation to the spherical bearing.
