Application

When purchasing U-Joints, 3 easy steps will help ensure that they will be correct for your application.

STEP 1
Be sure to measure the diameter of the shaft and count the number of splines on the shaft. Some shafts have a blank spot ground on one side. To get the correct number of splines, use a flat edge and cover the blank half of the shaft through the diameter and count the splines on the other half. Multiply that number by 2, thus giving you the total number of splines on the full circumference of the shaft.

STEP 2
Choose which shaft type best suits your application: 3/4" weld on, 3/4" DD or 1" DD.

STEP 3
With these two pieces of information at hand, refer to our chart to find the appropriate part number of the u-joint for your specific application.

Overall Assessment

Customers praise the product for its reliable, high-quality construction and practical usability. Being light-weight, durable, compact, and having a sleek appearance are top features. Its use in improving steering columns in classic and homebuilt cars and hot rods is highly recommended. It is praised as easy to install, great for tight spaces, and for being a good value for money. Comments highlight the product's superiority in strength and compatibility with varying car models compared to other brands. It's valued as 'American-made' and for being a resilient, long-lasting component in steering systems. Its key benefits include being rebuildable and having a solid, compact design. However, some customers note there's room for slight improvement in terms of fit with some steel rods. Despite this, the product's qualities make it preferable over competitors.

Nice and compact

The U-Joint is small enough to fit in tight places. The 3/4" round end might be a little loose with some steel rods. I have 3/4" round rods that are not exactly the same size. Some fit snugly while others are a little loose. However this is the "weld-on" end so that is of no concern. The DD hole fits well with a rod that I had on hand but is looser than I'd like with the Speedway DD rod. Since this end will be secured with a screw, you may want to look through a few DD rods of have them machined. I just made my own. I would buy another one without hesitation. In fact I will need another one with DD ends on both sides as soon as I get the geometry figured out.
