PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a radiator support capable of suppressing increase of the number of parts mounted in an engine room while reinforcement is made in order to heighten the strength of an upper support. SOLUTION: The radiator support is equipped with a pair of side supports 10 stretching in the vertical direction and supporting the two sides of a radiator in its width direction, the upper support 11 extending in the horizontal direction and supporting the upper part of the radiator, and a lower support 12 extending alike in the horizontal direction and supporting the lower part of the radiator. The upper support 11 and the lower support 12 are coupled together by a cooling water reserver tank 9 used in the engine cooling system, and thereby the reserver tank 9 serves as a reinforcing material for the radiator support 5. This provides reinforcement in order to heighten the strength of the radiator support 5 (upper support 11) without bringing about an increase of components owing to addition of new parts for reinforcement to be installed inside the engine room.
