Abstract

Method for manufacturing a core (2) of an elastic bearing, in particular in the chassis area of ​​a vehicle, wherein the elastic bearing for connecting two components comprises: • a plastic core (2) that is at least partially fiber-reinforced and manufactured in a pultrusion or extrusion process for connecting to a first component and • a sleeve (4) enclosing the plastic core (2) made of a rubber-like material for connecting to a second component, characterized in that the plastic core (2) has a shape (2b) that cannot be produced in the extrusion or pultrusion process, which is produced by applying additional material at least to a part of the surface of the plastic core (2) or by reshaping the plastic core (2).
