As shown in detail in FIG. 3, this stay 11 includes a rear folded portion 12, a notch 13 formed on the lower end side of this folded portion 12, and a tongue piece 14 protruding from this notch 13. It includes holes 16 provided at two locations in the front side folded portion 15, a radiator support member 17 fixed to the lower end, and a notch 18 formed at the lower end. Then, when the left and right front radiator stays 11 are lowered onto the cross member 3 while inserting the bracket 5 between the front and rear folded portions 15.12, the notches 18 of these stays 11 engage with the cross member 3. It will be supported almost vertically. At this time, when the radiator 1 is tilted forward, the radiator stay 11 rotates while the end face of the notch 18 slides on the cross member 3, and the tongue piece 14 rotates at the curved part of the rear side folded part 8 of the bracket 5. 6 and stops when it comes into contact with it.
