An object of this invention is to provide a connecting rod (1) in which a pair of ball-shanks (4,5) are connected to a rod main body (1) such that they are axially perpendicular to each other, having a sufficient strength and which can be produced easily and at low cost, and a manufacturing method thereof. The connecting rod (1) of this invention to achieve such an object comprises first and second ball-shanks (4,5) and a rod main body (1) to which the first and second ball-shanks are connected freely swingably and rotatably. The first ball-shank (4) is connected to the rod main body (1) such that the shank portion is perpendicular thereto, while the second ball-shank (5) is connected to the rod main body (1) such that the shank is in parallel thereto. Further, the rod main body (1) is die cast with a ball portion (4b) of each ball-shank (4,5) inserted as a core. <IMAGE> |
