Abstract
A suspension arm bushing provided in a vehicle includes coils. First magnetic viscoelastic elastomers are arranged at both ends in an axial direction of a housing, respectively, to sandwich the coils. A second magnetic viscoelastic elastomer is arranged in the housing so as to be sandwiched between the coils. A controller selectively switches directions of magnetic fields generated by the coils between the same direction and opposite directions.
