Toy vehicle

A toy car comprising:

• a chassis;
• a body secured to an upper portion of the chassis;
• and
• four wheels, each wheel having a center point defined therein, the four wheels being rotatably attached to the chassis body separately at the center point of each wheel, and the four wheels have a combined first weight such that a horizontally planar center of gravity defined by the toy car and measured from a lowest point on an outer edge of the four wheels towards a center of the chassis body is positioned substantially about the center point of the four wheels, and wherein the chassis further includes:
• a rear portion having a pair of oppositely facing openings, rear pin ends extending from the openings to connect a pair of rear wheels, defined from the four wheels, to the rear portion of the chassis;
• and
• a front portion being secured to a front end sway suspension system, the front end sway suspension system defined as having:
• a front suspension member comprising:
• a center section having a back face secured to the front portion of the chassis, and two side faces, each side face having upper and lower legs extends out therefrom, each leg further includes a substantially horizontal flange extending therefrom with an opening defined on each flange such that the openings on each pair of upper and lower legs face towards each other;
• a pair of casters, each caster having an opening sized to receive a front pin end to connect a front wheel, defined from the four wheels, thereto, each caster further has a peg positioned on a first side of the opening, the peg having upper and lower proiections sized to be received within the openings on the upper and lower legs, and each caster further has an upwardly extending rod positioned on a second side of the opening;
• and
• a sway bar being positioned over a portion of the front portion of the chassis, the sway bar having sway bar ends with apertures to receive the upwardly extending rods defined by the pair of casters.

• and wherein the chassis further includes:
• a rear portion having a pair of oppositely facing openings, rear pin ends extending from the openings to connect a pair of rear wheels, defined from the four wheels, to the rear portion of the chassis;
• and
• a front portion being secured to a front end sway suspension system, the front end sway suspension system defined as having:
• a front suspension member comprising:
• a center section having a back face secured to the front portion of the chassis, and two side faces, each side face having upper and lower legs extends out therefrom, each leg further includes a substantially horizontal flange extending therefrom with an opening defined on each flange such that the openings on each pair of upper and lower legs face towards each other;
• a pair of casters, each caster having an opening sized to receive a front pin end to connect a front wheel, defined from the four wheels, thereto, each caster further has a peg positioned on a first side of the opening, the peg having upper and lower projections sized to be received within the openings on the upper and lower legs, and each caster further has an upwardly extending rod positioned on a second side of the opening;
• and
• a sway bar being positioned over a portion of the front portion of the chassis, the sway bar having sway bar ends with apertures to receive the upwardly extending rods defined by the pair of casters.

A toy car having a chassis with four wheels rotatably attached thereto and further having a body secured to the chassis;

• and wherein the chassis further includes:
• a front and rear portion, the rear portion having a pair of oppositely facing openings, rear pin ends extending from the openings to connect a pair of rear wheels, defined from the four wheels, to the rear portion of the chassis;
• a front end sway suspension system secured to the front portion, and the front end sway suspension system having:
• a front suspension member comprising:
• a center section having a back face secured to the front portion of the chassis, and two side faces, each side face having upper and lower legs extends out therefrom, each leg further includes a substantially horizontal flange extending therefrom with an opening defined on each flange such that the openings on each pair of upper and lower legs face towards each other;
• a pair of casters, each caster having an opening sized to receive a front pin end to connect a front wheel, defined from the four wheels, thereto, each caster further has a peg positioned on a first side of the opening, the peg having a bore therethrough to align with the openings on the upper and lower legs and a peg pin sized to secure the bore to the openings on the upper and lower legs, and each caster further has an upwardly extending rod positioned adjacent to the opening;
• a sway bar being positioned over a portion of the front portion of the chassis, the sway bar having sway bar ends secured to the upwardly extending rods defined by the pair of casters, the sway bar further includes a pair of guide posts separately extending from the sway bar ends towards the rear portion of the chassis, the sway bar further includes an inward notch defined at a junction of the guide post and the sway bar end;
• and
• a sliding locking mechanism having a sliding channel defined from a base member, a pair of side walls extending from the base member, and an inwardly turned lip defined along a terminating edge of the side walls, the sliding channel sized to slide along a portion of the chassis body between the front and rear portions of the chassis, a pair of locking posts extending upwardly from a portion of the sliding locking mechanism, and wherein when the sliding locking mechanism is moved towards the sway bar the locking posts are positionable in the notches to restrict movement of the sway bar and therefore restrict movement of wheels connected to the front portion of the chassis.
