An aluminum axle journal or wheel mount comprises an aluminum body to which a bearing unit is secured. A steel pivot is inserted into the aluminum body which supports the wheel bearing unit and which is braced against the aluminum body. The aluminum body can be either cast or forged and after it has been produced is designed with a dimensionally accurate opening that serves to receive the steel pivot. After pressing in the steel pivot, a wheel bearing unit is fitted onto the steel pivot and secured against axial shifting using a suitable attachment, preferably a necked-down bolt.
