Spring link for a vehicle suspension, comprising: an elongated base body extending along an axial direction and having an essentially U-shaped cross section and an areal bottom extending along an axial-transversal xy-plane, a wheel-side mounting portion and a vehicle-side mounting portion at respective axial end portions of the base body, and a spring seat for spring/damping means defined at a transversely outwardly bulged middle portion of the base body, wherein a topological quantity defined by the number of segments of a path providing change of sign of curvature is at least two, preferably at least four, said path being defined by a cylindrical section of the bottom with corresponding cylinder axis being orthogonal to the xy-plane and going through the center of the spring seat and corresponding cylinder diameter being at least half of the transversal bottom width at said center.
