ABSTRACT:
An axle beam type rear suspension of an automotive vehicle having a pair of trailing arms located respectively at the right and left sides of a vehicle body. Each trailing arm is mounted through a bushing on a support shaft bridging inboard and outboard side brackets which are spaced from each other and fixed to a rear side member. The outboard side bracket extends downward over the lower end of a side sill fixedly secured to the rear side member. A parking brake cable is disposed between the trailing arm and the outboard side bracket and located at a position higher than the lower end of the outboard side bracket, thereby preventing the parking brake cable from interfering with an attachment of a vehicle lifting device when the vehicle is raised to make vehicle maintenance or repair.
