Abstract A generally planar plate body is provided for abutting against one side of the steering knuckle sleeve portion of a vehicle through which one end portion of a steering arm is secured. A pair of U-bolts are also provided and disposed in substantially parallel planes for snugly embracing the side of the end portion of the steering arm, at opposite ends of the steering knuckle sleeve portion, remote from the side of the sleeve portion against which the plate body is abutted. The free threaded ends of the parallel arms of the U-bolts are secured through the plate body and the side of the plate body toward which the closed ends of the U-bolts open includes a pair of abutment blocks provided with aligned outwardly opening notches formed in their outer extremities which embrace the adjacent portions of the steering arm and the plate body includes a pair of similarly angularly and outwardly directed anchor portions which project outwardly from the side of the plate body remote from the closed ends of the U-bolts with the outer extremities of the anchor portions provided with structure for removably anchoring corresponding ends of a pair of expansion springs thereto.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
154 words
A steering stabilizer mount for the steering arm of a vehicle equipped with a hub mounted steering arm having one end portion secured through a steering knuckle, said mount including a generally planar plate body including means on one side thereof for abutting against one side of the steering knuckle sleeve portion through which said one end portion of said arm is secured, a pair of U-bolts each including a pair of generally parallel arms interconnected at one pair of corresponding ends by means of an integral curved bight portion and threaded at the other pair of ends thereof, said pair of U-bolts being disposed in substantially parallel planes for snugly embracing the side of said one end portion of said steering arm, at the opposite ends of said sleeve portion, remote from said one side of said sleeve portion, and the threaded ends of said parallel arms being secured through said plate body.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
154 words
A steering stabilizer mount for the steering arm of a vehicle equipped with a hub mounted steering arm having one end portion secured through a steering knuckle, said mount including a generally planar plate body including means on one side thereof for abutting against one side of the steering knuckle sleeve portion through which said one end portion of said arm is secured, a pair of U-bolts each including a pair of generally parallel arms interconnected at one pair of corresponding ends by means of an integral curved bight portion and threaded at the other pair of ends thereof, said pair of U-bolts being disposed in substantially parallel planes for snugly embracing the side of said one end portion of said steering arm, at the opposite ends of said sleeve portion, remote from said one side of said sleeve portion, and the threaded ends of said parallel arms being secured through said plate body.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
73 words
The combination of claim 1 wherein said plate body includes a pair of similarly angularly and outwardly directed anchor portions spaced outwardly of the remote sides of said U-bolts and extending outwardly of the side of said plate body remote from said curved bight portions of said U-bolts, the outer free end portions of said outwardly directed portions including means adapted to have corresponding ends of a pair of expansion springs anchored thereto.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
44 words
The combination of claim 1 wherein said means on said one side of said plate body for abutting against said steering knuckle includes a pair of outstanding abutment block portions spaced along a path extending centrally between the arms of both of said U-bolts.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
18 words
The combination of claim 3 wherein the outer extremities of said abutment blocks include aligned outwardly opening notches.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
20 words
The combination of claim 4 wherein said abutment blocks are each centrally spaced between the arms of a corresponding U-bolt.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
73 words
The combination of claim 5 wherein said plate body includes a pair of similarly angularly and outwardly directed anchor portions spaced outwardly of the remote sides of said U-bolts and extending outwardly of the side of said plate body remote from said curved bight portions of said U-bolts, the outer free end portions of said outwardly directed portions including means adapted to have corresponding ends of a pair of expansion springs anchored thereto.
