Abstract
A vehicular suspension system is provided which includes upper and lower arms connected to a vehicle body in such a manner as to pivot in an up-and-down direction. The upper arm and the lower arm retain upper and lower portions of a knuckle, respectively. The suspension system includes retention mechanisms for retaining the upper and lower arms in such a manner as to allow the upper and lower arms to shift in a lateral direction of the vehicle body, and conversion mechanisms for converting pivotal movements of the upper and lower arms in the up-and-down direction into displacements of the upper and lower arms in the lateral direction of the vehicle body.
