About Universal Joints

Universal joints connect sections of the propeller shaft and allow angular movement between the transmission, transfer case and axles. On pickups and trucks they wear quickly when not greased and after water crossings, causing clunks, vibration and eventually shaft failure.

U-joints are specified by bearing cap diameter, overall width across caps, retention type (inside circlips, outside circlips, U-bolt or strap) and whether they are greaseable or sealed. Some propeller shafts use different caps on each axis. Truck U-joints are larger series with higher torque ratings. Stock greaseable joints for fleet users who follow regular lubrication schedules. See propeller shaft components.
