Description

Keep torque moving through your driveline with the SKF Universal Joint UJ295A, a greasable joint from SKF's Brute Force line that connects driveshaft sections and lets the angle between them change as the suspension moves. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2006-2008 Dodge Ram 1500, 2011-2019 Ram 2500 and 2003-2010 Dodge Ram 2500. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.

Depending on the application, it is cataloged for front, rear and center joint positions, including the front, center and rear joints of the rear shaft. SKF u joints in this series are made from premium materials to strict SKF quality standards. They use advanced manufacturing technology for accurate fit and function.

Hardened alloy steel cross: The cross section is forged from hardened alloy steel for wear resistance.
Case-hardened caps and needle bearings: The steel bearing caps are case-hardened and precision ground. The interior needle bearings are high-carbon steel, through-hardened for greater load-carrying capability.
Nitrile rubber cap seals: The seals are designed to hold grease in and keep contaminants out.
Black oxide coating: The coating gives rust protection in corrosive conditions.

Like all SKF Brute Force u joints, it comes pre-lubricated with premium high-temperature grease made for a wide temperature range. It is also greasable, so it can be re-lubricated during routine service.
