INDEPENDENT SUSPENSION SYSTEM Abstract of the Disclosure An independently sprung front suspension system for improving the ride and handling of a recreational vehicle having a unitized body and frame, including a wishbone-shaped lower control arm having spaced apart inner ends mounted for pivotal movement on a control arm shaft, a tubular member surrounding the control arm shaft and secured to the frame, a pair of spaced apart elastomeric bushings mounted on the shaft within the tubular member permitting large horizontal deflection and minimal vertical deflection of the shaft within the tubular member during road impact and braking conditions, thereby substantially isolating the frame therefrom, and having their respective outer- most ends contoured to prevent excessive wear thereon during such horizontal movement, and elastomeric end stop means between the ends of the tubular member and the adjacent control arm ends for limiting axial and horizontal movement of the shaft and the elastomeric bushings within the tubular member to assist in the prevention of excessive wear of the elastomeric bushings.
