Abstract

The present invention relates to a suspension element for a rigid wheelshaft of a vehicle. The suspension element is connected pivotably to the wheelshaft by two connections and is connected pivotably to the vehicle's framework by two connections. The suspension element is designed to prevent movement of the wheelshaft in longitudinal and transverse directions and to provide a stabilizing effect. The suspension element is composed of two separate elongate elements which are designed to be held together by at least one separate connecting device.
