Abstract
A suspension mount assembly for mounting a subframe to a frame of a vehicle having a frame rail is provided. The suspension mount assembly includes a cross member and a stay. The cross member is coupled to the frame rail and at least partially defines a recess. The subframe includes a distal end at least partially positioned within the recess at a mounting point defined along a central axis of the recess. The stay couples the cross member to the frame rail and retains the subframe at least partially positioned within the recess at the mounting point.
