Modular independent suspension and method of producing the same

A method of producing a modular independent suspension having portal wheel ends is disclosed herein. The method includes, but is not limited to, assembling a first flank component (24) and a second flank component (26) to opposite sides of a sub-frame (22) configured to receive a carrier (54). The method further includes assembling a first upper control arm (34) and a first lower control arm (32) to the first flank component (24). The method further includes assembling a second upper control arm (40) and a second lower control arm (38) to the second flank component (26). The method further includes assembling a first portal wheel end (42) to the first upper control arm (34) and the first lower control arm (32). The method still further includes assembling a second portal wheel end (44) to the second upper control arm (40) and the second lower control arm (38).
