Does any one know a good place to get universal joints from?

One of mine appears to be knackered, and is causing a annoying juddering.

Cheers

No, not at all.


Suzukis will be about £10 dearer.

Yep Bearing suppliers best place although to identify them you may have to do some acurate measuring of dimensions.

If your interested I may have a spare one that I could send.
The same UJ element fits some very old shaft driven pumps where I work, and we keep several spare elements

Got round to changing the uj earlier. What a bloody nightmare!!! :evil: Ended up having to angle grind the old one off, then all the pins fell out of the new one :angry:

All done now though, although there is still a bit of a judder, so there might be another one on its way out. Should be easier the second time round.........i hope :lol:
