The arm 5 is provided with arm parts 6, 7 to link the ball joint part 2 with the bush 3, 4. The arm part 6 (or 7) is formed into such a shape as width (b) of the arm part 6 in its vertical direction is increased gradually and width (h) in the horizontal direction is decreased gradually, from the ball joint part 2 and the bush part 3 respectively toward the longitudinal center 61.
