Abstract

A fitting arrangement for fitting a drive package (1) for a vehicle, the arrangement includes a supporting element (2) to be mounted on the drive package (1). The supporting element (2) has an end element (6), which cooperates with the vehicle's frame (4) to support the drive package (1). The end element abuts upon a cooperating bearing element which is suspended relative to the frame (4). At least one screw (10) cooperates with the end element (6), to fix the supporting element (2) to the vehicle's frame (4) via the bearing element (8). A washer (12) cooperates with the screw (10) to fix the supporting element (2) to the frame. A spacing element (14) cooperates with the screw (10) to keep the washer (12) in a horizontal position above the bearing element (8). The end element (6) has a recess (16) which cooperates with the screw (10) so that the supporting element (2) can be moved into position by a substantially horizontal docking movement, whereby the recess (16) accommodates the screw (10) and the docking movement is completed when the screw (10) is fitted (18) in the recess (16).
