Abstract
A mounting assembly is provided for, for example, joining a cardan shaft to an axle drive of a vehicle. The mounting assembly includes a nut housing having a continuous opening arranged to receive an insert nut having a continuous internal thread, a nut having a continuous internal thread, and at least one securing element which interacts with the nut housing and the nut to constrain relative axial movement between the nut housing and the nut. The insert nut and the nut housing may be rotationally fixed relative to one another, for example using complementary polygonal outer and inner surfaces, respectively. A retainer may be provided in the interior space of the nut housing to constrain axial movement of the insert nut within the nut housing.
