Universal/U-joints are used to transfer power/torque from and engine to the drive-shafts and rear differentials. The U-joints allow the driveshaft and suspension to move thru it's normal range of motion, while still being able to transfer the power from the engine/transmission.

What is the medical term meaning pain in many joints?
Polyarthralgia. Poly- means many, arth- means joint, -algia is pain, arthralgia is joint pain. Usually the term polyarthralgia is used when five or more joints are affected. Another term used for joint pain is arthritis, which means inflammation "-itis" of the joint and can be caused by many different disorders, injuries, or infections. When multiple joints are inflamed, it could be called polyarthritis.

What are universal joint examples?
Examples of universal joints include driveshafts in vehicles, electric fans, and even some types of bicycles. They are used to transfer power between two shafts that are not in a straight line with each other.
What is the purpose of CV joint used on front wheel drive vehicle?
a cv (constant velocity) joint is used to transmit power from drive train (engine, transmission) to the wheels like universal joints, but also allows wheels to turn (steer) in front drive vehicles
What does the universal joint on the propeller shaft of an automobile function?
The universal joint is used to transfer drive (power) from one shaft to another when they are inclined (non collinear) to each other.
What Type of universal joint on a front wheel drive?
Front-wheel drive vehicles typically use a type of universal joint called a "constant velocity joint" (CV joint). CV joints allow for smooth power transfer to the wheels while accommodating the up-and-down movement of the suspension and the steering angle. There are two main types of CV joints used: the "ball-type" joint, often found on the outer end of the axle, and the "tripod-type" joint, commonly used on the inner end. These joints are designed to maintain consistent rotational speed and reduce vibration, making them essential for front-wheel drive systems.
What are U-joints?
A universal joint, U joint, Cardan joint, Hardy-Spicer joint, or Hooke's joint is a joint in a rigid rod that allows the rod to 'bend' in any direction, and is commonly used in shafts that transmit rotary motion.
What is the different between hook joint and universal joint?
A hook joint is a type of mechanical joint that connects two pieces by hooking them together, allowing for rotational movement in one direction. A universal joint, on the other hand, is a type of joint that allows for rotational movement in two directions, typically used to connect two shafts that are not in line with each other.
What is a universal joint typically used for?
It is a mechanical connection between rotating shafts which are generally not in parallel, but intersecting. It can allow positive transmission of rotating power at a much larger angle than is permissible with a flexible coupling. And it can transmit torque and motion.
What kind of coolant in 2000 Jeep Wrangler?
Best thing to do is but the universal coolant, it can be used in all vehicles.
What is the use of hooke's joint?
The actual use of the Hooke's or universal joint is to transmit motion from one shaft to another if they are inclined to one another by a certain angle. Its usually used in cars and it transmits motion from gear box to the differential of the wheel axle.

How universal coupling works in automotive steering linkages?
A "U" joint is generally used in the steering column shaft between the wheel and the steering gear. This would be either the rack or the steering box.
