Abstract
An attachment structure of a stabilizer link is provided having one end pivotally fitted to an end of a stabilizer and the other end coupled to a wheel support member by a coupling device. A positional relationship of pivot points of the one end and the other end of the stabilizer link relative to the kingpin axis is set such that when the stabilizer link is displaced relative to the wheel support member in accordance with rolling of a vehicle at the time of turning, the wheel support member is pivotally displaced about the kingpin axis in the direction where a steered angle of the steered wheel is increased, and when a magnitude of roll angle of the vehicle is large, the coupling device increases a ratio of a pivotal displacement amount of the wheel support member relative to the roll angle of the vehicle as compared with a situation where a magnitude of roll angle of the vehicle is small.
