ABSTRACT OF DISCLOSURE A vehicle coupling comprises a linkage pivotably attachable to a first vehicle about a transverse horizontal axis, and a bearing assembly. The bearing assembly has a vertically disposed pivot bearing for connecting the vehicle coupling to a coupling member attached to a second vehicle. The vertically disposed pivot bearing has a first part fixed to the vehicle coupling and a second part fixed to the coupling member. Said first part of the vertical bearing is mounted above the linkage by support means incorporating a horizontal pivot bearing whose axis is perpendicular to the transverse horizontal axis. The vehicle coupling is such that the weight transference of the second vehicle to the first vehicle acts down through the axis of the vertically disposed pivot bearing, and such that the foremost vertical surface of the vertically disposed pivot bearing is situated nearer to the vertical plane containing the transverse horizontal axis than any other part of the vehicle coupling which is above the axis of the horizontal pivot bearing. - 2 -
