Steering Universal Joints

The steering universal joint is a small yet important part of your system. This component transfers the steering force from the steering wheel to the steering rack for better control. It also allows the column and rack to move based on steering feedback, directional changes and bumps in the road without losing their connection. Worn-out steering U-joints can cause looseness in the steering column, rattling noises, grinding or jamming. Most importantly, a bad steering U-joint makes your vehicle harder to drive, hurting performance and causing safety concerns.

Aftermarket U-Joints for Off-Roading

If you need a steering universal joint to repair, upgrade or convert your 4x4, Advance Adapters has you covered with a variety of options . Shop here for steering U -joints that are compatible with multiple vehicle makes, including Toyota and Jeep. The right U-joint gives steering systems the balance they need for precise control, better responsiveness and fewer vibrations. Single-bearing universal steering joints are best for angles up to 35 degrees while double-bearing joints (aka DD joints) will work for steering columns at angles of 35 to 70 degrees.

Our aftermarket steering uni joints come from leading brands like Borgeson Universal. They're made of durable steel or stainless steel and designed to match or exceed factory performance. In some cases, the OE steering shaft U-joint is no longer manufactured; an aftermarket part lets you keep your vehicle in service without resorting to junkyard parts or jerry-rigged modifications. Many U-joint sizes and spline counts are available for the fit you need.
