A universal joint links two rotating shafts and lets the driveshaft transmit torque while the operating angle changes between the transmission, transfer case, support bearing and axle. This unit is cataloged for multiple positions, including the rear driveshaft at the rear axle or transmission, the front driveshaft at the front axle or transfer case, and CV positions.
If a worn U-joint is the cause of driveline clunk or vibration, this Spicer joint replaces it.
