Abstract

See full text

An improved bearing support structure for a vehicle driveline includes a bracket having ears for supporting a bearing cushion. The ears are separated by a distance which is greater than the thickness of the cushion such that the cushion can self-align within the bracket. In this way, a variety of driveline angles can be accommodated by the bearing cushion within the bracket. Moreover, the bearing cushion is provided with recesses which facilitate the ability of the cushion to flex to further allow relative alignment of the axis of the driveline within the bracket.
