    Abstract: A securing element for dampened securement of a group of components one to another and, in particular, for dampened securement of drive components of trucks, is provided and includes a housing, a support body, an deformable enclosure enclosing a fluid volume and an elastomeric load bearing body which, in one operational condition, supports the entire mass of the group of components without being operatively coupled to the support body in a manner which brings the support body into load bearing duty and which, in another operational condition, cooperatively acts with the support body. The securing element also includes a control device operable to effect a decoupling of the load bearing body and the support body from one another and operable, in another control operation, to effect a coupling of the load bearing body and the support body with one another such that both cooperate together in supporting the load.
