Abstract

A suspension system is provided with a suspension cross member 12 for rear wheels, a suspension member supported on the suspension cross member 12, elastic mounts 19 to 21 for mounting the suspension cross member 12 on the vehicle body, the elastic mounting means 19 to 21 being provided at three positions along forward and backward directions in such a manner as to form a triangle when the vehicle body is viewed sideways. Thus, a change in wheel alignment can be effectively suppressed without reducing a vehicle's comfort to ride.
