ABSTRACT:
An upper end portion of a steering knuckle is fastened to a pair of parallel flanges of a bracket secured to a lower end portion of the strut by a relative angle adjusting mechanism. The upper portion of the steering knuckle is adapted to swing about the pivoting bolt by turning the relative angle adjusting means to adjust a relative angle of the steering knuckle for setting a camber angle. One of the flanges is provided with a first guide opening extending crosswisely with respect to the axis of the strut whereas the other flange includes a second guide opening extending in parallel with the axis of the strut. The relative angle adjusting mechanism is provided with an adjust bolt having a larger diameter portion and a smaller diameter portion. The larger diameter portion is eccentric to the smaller diameter portion for easily adjusting the camber angle.
