An annular recess 73 is provided in a fitting hole 71 of a bracket 7 into which a cylinder tube 53 of a housing is fitted that accommodates a steering drive shaft capable of moving in right and left directions of a car body in response to a steering operation and that has the cylinder tube 53 made of metal, while a part of the cylinder tube 53 ranging from an inner periphery surface to an outer periphery surface is bent into said recess 73, so that an escape preventing protrusion 8 is provided, thereby increasing an escape preventing strength of the bracket 7. This increases the escape preventing strength of the bracket joined to the cylinder tube, without generation of thermal distortion in the cylinder tube. Further, the components such as the steering drive shaft can be assembled without disturbance from said bracket.
