A suspension strut used in a wheel suspension of an automotive vehicle, includes
a shock absorber, a suspension strut bearing, and a coil spring at least partially
coaxially surrounding the shock absorber and having one spring end supported by
the shock absorber. The suspension strut bearing includes two plastic carrier elements,
and a roller bearing positioned between the carrier elements. One carrier element
is a guide ring connected to a vehicle body of the vehicle, and the other carrier
element is a single-piece housing having incorporated therein plural hollow chambers
in partial concentric surrounding relationship to the shock absorber and formed
with a guide collar and a support surface for supporting the other end of the coil
spring. The guide ring has a radially inner collar and a radially outer collar
which together receive the roller bearing and extend at least beyond a midsection
of the roller bearing.
