A universal joint is a pivoting driveline coupling that lets a shaft transmit rotation across changing angles. Signs it may need replacing include a clunk on acceleration or shifting, driveline vibration, or a squeak that changes with speed — diagnose the cause first, since those symptoms can have other sources, and if the original joint is the fault, this replaces it.
Manufacturer part number 240.
