ABSTRACT:
In the present invention a stabilizer bar is installed at a specific position. The installation position is set such that a joining member of a joint mechanism is rotatable around a second connector so as to draw an upper side of a wheel supporting member inward in the width direction of a vehicle when a downward force is input from the stabilizer bar to the installation position.
According to the invention, when a downward stabilizer reaction force is input from the stabilizer bar during a turn of the vehicle, the upper section of the wheel supporting member is relatively shifted inward in the vehicle width direction so that the camber angle of an outside wheel (in the turn) is changed into a negative direction. Thus, the outside wheel (in the turn) is moved towards its upright position under the effect of the stabilizer bar, thereby improving the turning characteristics of the vehicle.
