GUIS-74

A U-joint connects two shafts, allowing power to be transmitted at varying angles between them, commonly found in driveshafts and steering columns.

Signs include clunking noises, vibrations, and grease leakage near the joint.

The process involves removing the driveshaft, pressing out the old U-joint, and installing a new one. It's recommended to have this service performed by a qualified technician.

Driving with a failing U-joint is not advisable, as it can lead to driveshaft failure and loss of vehicle control.
