Chassis bushings, also known as strut bearings or chassis mounts, join different components in the vehicle. These components are load-bearing parts and they simultaneously absorb vibrations from different directions, thus increasing driving stability and improving driving dynamics by reducing unwanted vibrations. The challenge in most cases is to accommodate these two basically contradictory requirements in a limited installation space.

The shape, rigidity and design of the chassis bushings vary depending on the type of axle and the purpose of the joint (wishbone struts, compression struts, camber struts).
