In order to facilitate the assembling of the ball joint while retaining the customary pulling-out forces, it is proposed that a wall section of the ball socket (1) be developed as a yoke-shaped part (5, 12) developed in one piece thereon, which can be engaged together with the ball head (4) into the ball socket (1).
