WC-18A ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A spigot assembly for attaching a knuckle of a vehicle to a relatively movable part of the vehicle by way of a bushing having a bore and ends adapted to be held within the knuckle. The major parts of the assembly include a spigot having a base arranged to be rigidly secured to the vehicle part and a tubular projection extending from the base. The projection includes an outer end defining a first annular surface facing axially outwardly of the projection. A tubular cap is provided having on its inner end a second annular surface and engageable in abutting relation with the first annular surface of the projection. A centering and aligning means is located at the inner end of the cap to ensure registry of the first and second annular surfaces. Bolt means is receivable in the aligned spigot and cap parts in coaxial relation therewith for fastening the spigot and cap parts tightly together with the first and second annular surfaces engaged with one another and with the centering and aligning means arranged to take up the bolt forces and transmit them to the aligned annular surfaces. These first and second annular surfaces serve to transmit any bending moments applied by the bushing to the cap part directly to the spigot part so that the bolt means is not subjected to bending stresses.
