Abstract of the Disclosure A spigot assembly for attaching the knuckle of a vehicle suspension or steering member, for example a torque rod, to another part of the vehicle such as a chassis member or an axle, comprises a spigot part arranged to be rigidly secured to such vehicle part, and an interfitting cap part. The spigot part has a generally cylindrical projection having at its outer end an axial recess defined in part by a frusto-conical surface, and the cap part is of cup-like form having a recess and an outwardly facing frusto-conical surface shaped to fit within the recess of the spigot part. The spigot and cap parts both have axial bores for receiving a bolt, the head of the bolt being trapped by the underside of the spigot part while the threaded part of the bolt lies within the recess of the cap part which also recieves the nut. The engagement of the frusto-conical surfaces of the two parts is such that these are accurately aligned together even though these surfaces are in the as cast condition and not machined, and in fact no machining is required for any of the parts of the assembly. The assembly is also very easily dismantled for replacement of, for example, the bushing of a torque rod normally located by the assembly.
