Abstract
An assembly with a lower steering arm has a strut 1 and an attaching end 16. To achieve a cost-effective design while at the same time reducing the play between the attaching end 16 and the end of the strut 1 received therein, the attaching end 16 includes a base member 18 and a cover 19. A blocking pawl 34 is supported in the base member 18. The cover 19 is welded to the base member 18 and comprises a stop face 30 for the end face 10 of the strut 1. Thus, any tolerances in the region of the base member 18 provided in the form of a forging do not affect the position of the stop face 30. The latter can be aligned when connecting the base member 18 and the cover 19. Because of its setting contour, the actuating lever 43 can be used for both the right hand and the left hand lower steering arm.
