A ball-and-socket joint for a motor vehicle, especially for a rocker pendulum of a motor vehicle, is provided with a housing ( 1 ), which is open on at least one side and into the interior space ( 2 ) of which a bearing shell ( 3 ) is inserted, which in turn accommodates a joint ball ( 4 ) of a ball pivot ( 5 ) in a slidingly movable manner. The interior space ( 2 ) has elevations and/or depressions ( 7 ) along its inner jacket surface ( 6 ) or a polygonal cross section, so that the bearing shell ( 3 ), which is provided with an oversize in relation to the inner jacket surface ( 6 ), can be inserted into the housing ( 1 ) in a positive-locking manner while its outer surface undergoes a partial plastic deformation. The inner jacket surface ( 6 ) may have pressure zones ( 19 ) which shorten the effective length of the elevations and/or depressions ( 7 ). |
