Bearing straps clamp the U-joint's bearing caps against the yoke so the joint stays secured as the driveshaft turns. If the original straps are bent or damaged, or their bolts have worked loose, this kit supplies fresh hardware for the job.
- Kit contents: two bearing straps and four bolts.
- Joint positions: cataloged for front, rear and center joints depending on the vehicle, including the rear shaft rear joint, rear shaft front joint, rear shaft center joint and front shaft front joint.
- Built for older vehicles: carefully engineered to help extend the service life of aging vehicles.

Signs this hardware may need replacing include a clunk when shifting into gear or on acceleration, driveline vibration, or straps and bolts that are loose, stretched or damaged. Tighten the bolts to the torque specification in the vehicle service information.

The kit contains two bearing straps and four bolts. The universal joint itself is not part of this kit.
Which joint positions is this strap kit used on?
Depending on the vehicle, it is cataloged for front, rear and center joints, including the rear shaft front, rear and center joints and the front shaft front joint. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section for your application.

It fits listed Dodge, Chrysler and Plymouth applications, such as the 1970-1971 Dodge Challenger and 1998-1999 Dodge Durango. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.

Consider replacing them if the straps are bent or cracked or the bolts are loose, stretched or stripped. Diagnose driveline clunks or vibration first, because other components can cause them.
