PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new dynamic damper for vehicle suspension members that can reduce the mass of a damper mass, even if the spring constant of an elastic support member is not reduced while damper functions are retained at an equivalent level or higher. SOLUTION: The dynamic damper 14 for suspension members comprises a stiff mounting member 18; a damper mass 20; and an elastic support member 20 for elastically supporting the damper mass 20. Then, the damper mass 20 is formed in a split configuration of a plurality of mass blocks 20-1, 20-2, 20-3 in a direction of the forward and backward of the vehicles. Respective mass blocks 20-1, 20-2, 20-3 are connected so that they can be connected in series in the forward/backward direction by elastic connecting members 26-1, 26-2. Respective mass blocks 20-1, 20-2, 20-3 can be separately vibrated in the upper and lower directions of the vehicles by the shear elastic deformation of the elastic connecting members 26-1, 26-2.
