ABSTRACT:
Front wheel suspension arms of a four wheel drive vehicle are supported by suspension members comprising a cross-member and front/back members formed at the ends of the cross-member. A transfer for distributing engine drive torque to the rear wheels is disposed underneath the cross-member. A stabilizer joining the left and right suspension arms is disposed such that it horizontally passes under the transfer at the front of the cross-member. Since the stabilizer is not disposed at the rear of or above the cross-member where it would tend to interfere with the vehicle body, the cross-sectional area of the cross-member may easily be made sufficiently large. Also, by positioning the stabilizer at the front of the cross-member, the length of the arms at both ends of the stabilizer can be made shorter, and desirable roll stability characteristics are obtained.
