Claim:
A disc drive suspension comprising: a load beam including a base plate mounting portion on which a base plate is fixed and a distal end portion independent of the base plate mounting portion; a hinge member connecting the base plate mounting portion and the distal end portion of the load beam; a flexure fixed on the load beam and including a head portion; an extending portion provided on the lateral of the base plate mounting portion of the load beam and fixing a longitudinal intermediate portion of the flexure; an elongated first hole formed in the extending portion, adapted to have a first positioning pin inserted therein, so as to allow the extending portion to move relative to the first positioning pin in a width direction of the extending portion; a large-diameter second hole formed in the extending portion, adapted to have a second positioning pin inserted therein so as to allow the extending portion to move relative to the second positioning pin in the width direction and in an axial direction of the extending portion; an elongated third hole formed in the flexure, adapted to have the first positioning pin inserted therein so as to allow the flexure to move relative to the first positioning pin in an axial direction of the flexure; and an elongated fourth hole formed in the flexure, adapted to have the second positioning pin inserted therein so as to allow the flexure to move relative to the second positioning pin in the axial direction of the flexure.
