Abstract
A suspension member and a method for manufacturing the same are provided by which it is possible to manufacture the suspension member at a low cost without decreasing rigidity thereof while also suppressing strain at joining portions. The present invention is a method for manufacturing a suspension member () provided with: a pair of side members (), and a cross member () linking the pair of side members and including an upper member () and a lower member () extending in a lateral direction of a vehicle and provided with base portions (and) and raised portions (, and). The method includes: an assembly step (ST) in which the cross member is formed by the upper member and the lower member and is assembled into a state where the side members are inserted from the outside into an internal space (S) formed therein by the upper member and the lower member; a first joining (ST) in which the upper member and the lower member are joined together; and a second joining step (STand ST) in which the side members and the cross member overlapping each other in the internal space are joined together.
