Abstract
The invention concerns a suspension stop for a motor vehicle wheel, comprising a device for measuring the forces applied to the vehicle wheel, the said device comprising at least one deformation sensor (12) which is associated with a fixed member (1, 6) of the said stop so as to measure the deformations of the said member which are caused by the said forces applied, and a calculation means able, from these deformations, to calculate the corresponding forces applied.
