Abstract
This invention provides, in a vibration isolating bushing comprising an inner and an outer cylinders cencentrically spaced apart and a rubber elastomer interconnecting both cylinders by vulcanization forming, such that it is possible to ensure sufficiently a forcing allowance of the outer cylinder when press fitted to a support member, to improve the workability upon assembling, and to avoid the outer cylinder from releasing and dropping off from the inner cylinder even if the rubber elastomer is ruptured. According to its expedient, the inner cylinder is formed at its axial extremities with outwardly upset portions, the outer cylinder is formed at its one axial extremity with a flange portion having a larger diameter than an outside diameter of the upset portion, and an inside diameter of the extremity of the outer cylinder is made smaller than the outside diameter of the upset portion.
