Zusammenfassung:	Systems and methods are provided for a self-aligning exhaust sensor joint. In one example, a system may include a tapered pipe having a flange at its wider end; a nut having a head, an externally threaded bottom, and a tapered inner cavity that is adapted to fit around the tapered pipe; and a boss having a threaded inner cavity that is adapted to engage with the threaded bottom of the nut and having an engagement cavity for receiving the flange. By inserting the flange into the engagement cavity, mating the externally threaded bottom of the nut with the threaded inner cavity of the boss, and torqueing the nut until a bottom surface of the externally threaded bottom pushes against the flange, a seal may be formed between the tapered pipe and the boss.
