ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A coupling assembly is provided to control the movement between two structural bodies when different forces are applied thereto. The coupling assembly is fixedly mounted to the first body and movably mounted to the second body. Low friction members are disposed between one of the bodies and the coupling assembly. The coupling assembly includes an outer metal cap member, an inner metal member disposed within and spaced from the outer cap member, and an elastomeric member disposed between the inner and outer metal members. The inner metal member includes a recess therein for receiving a protruding element connected to the structural body associated with the low friction members. The protruding element loosely fits into the recess of the inner metal member to permit movement therein in a predetermined direction. Initially, a restraint and limited movement is permitted by the elastomeric member for relatively low differential forces. With high differential forces, the restraint is overcome and the structural bodies move with respect to each other on the low friction members.
