The present invention relates to a coupling arrangement adapted for inclusion in a universal-joint-related arrangement (A), comprising a first axle (1) or the like having on one end a U-shaped forked unit (10), and further comprising an "X"-shaped torque transmission member (3) and a second axle (2) or the like having on one end a U-shaped forked unit (20), wherein the forked unit (10) assigned to the first axle and the cross-member-related and mutually opposing legs (11, 12) of said forked unit (10) are able to co-act with two, of a total of four, mutually opposite arm parts (3a, 3c) of said cross-member (3) and wherein the forked unit (20) of the second axle (2) and its cross-member-related and mutually opposite legs (21 , 22) are able to co-act over radial bearing means with two, of a total of four, mutually opposite arm parts (3b, 3d) of said cross-member (3). An arrangement which functions as an axial bearing means includes a number of cross-member-related rod-like elements (9, 19), which function as torsion elements and which are centrally orientated in each of the associated arm parts, wherein the rod-like elements (9, 19) are each intended to urge its particular leg of said forked unit in a direction towards the centre (3') of the cross-member.
