A clamping apparatus used for improving the fastening of a mounting projection between proximal and distal flanges of a clevis. The proximal flange of the clevis has a hole, an inner side facing the distal flange, and an outer side. The clamping apparatus includes a threaded clamping plug sized to fit in the hole in the proximal flange and to abut the mounting projection when the clamping plug is in the hole in the proximal flange and the mounting projection is between the two flanges. Another embodiment is an apparatus for fastening a mounting projection to a structure. The fastening apparatus includes a clevis attached to the structure, the clevis having a proximal flange and a distal flange. The proximal and distal flanges each have a hole, an inner side, and an outer side. The fastening apparatus further includes a threaded clamping plug which is sized to fit in the hole in the proximal flange of the clevis and to abut the mounting projection when the clamping plug is in the hole in the proximal flange and the mounting projection is between the two flanges. The fastening apparatus further includes fastening means to urge against the proximal end of the clamping plug and the outer side of the distal flange of the clevis.
