Abstract

In a vibration damper arrangement for vehicles, an axially extending vibration damper of the piston rod-cylinder type is mounted in a receptacle in a vibration damper support. The damper includes an axially extending jacket tube which is removably secured in the receptacle by a fastening device attached to one end of the tube. The fastening device exerts a tension force on the damper causing a stop surface on the jacket tube to be biased against another stop surface on the receptacle. At least one of the stop surfaces extends obliquely of the jacket tube axis.
