Abstract
A front suspension arm is formed such that it is less likely to collide with obstacles exposed above the surface over which the associated vehicle is operated. The arm also has a greater strength against impact forces from the front. In one configuration, the front suspension arm has a relatively straight portion that is positioned on a body side and the front suspension arm has a bent portion that is formed on the ground contacting element side. The front suspension arm can have two arms having an oblong or oval shape in cross section.
