An aircraft joint (40) between overlapping first (31) and second (35) components includes a fastener assembly. The fastener assembly includes a threaded fastener (42) and a boss (43) having an outer diameter (44a) and a threaded internal bore (44b). The boss is fixedly attached to the second component at the overlap region. The first component has a through hole (46) having a diameter sized to receive the outer diameter of the boss. The boss is received in the through hole from a first side of the first component. The fastener extends through the through hole from a second side of the first component opposite the first side. The fastener is threadably received in the internal bore of the boss and reacts against the second side of the first component to fasten the first component to the second component.
