ABSTRACT:
A ball-and-socket joint for chassis parts in motor vehicles, in which a joint ball provided on a pivot pin is mounted within a housing in a sliding shell made of plastic, wherein the outer jacket of the sliding shell is tightly enclosed by the inner jacket of the housing. To compensate manufacturing tolerances, a material, which is highly elastic compared with the material of the sliding shell, is arranged in a recess on the outer jacket of the sliding shell (4) at least at points of increased load by the joint ball.
