Abstract

A method for producing a joining connection between a joint housing and at least one connection component including: providing a blank for the fabrication of the joint housing, and providing a connection component with a joint receptacle inserting the blank into the joint receptacle of the connection component and producing the joint housing through forming by cold extrusion of the inserted blank. An undercut positive-engagement joining connection is generated between the joint housing and the connection component during the cold extrusion process through transverse extrusion and/or upsetting. A chassis component has a structural component part with at least one joint receptacle formed as orifice and a joint housing for a joint device, which joint housing is inserted into this joint receptacle and fastened to the structural component part.
