Universal Joint for the propeller shaft, of the 82mm cap-to-cap type.

The universal (cardan) joint connects two sections of the propshaft, transmitting drive torque while accommodating the changing angle between the transfer-box output and the axle as the suspension articulates. The needle-roller bearing caps locate in the propshaft yokes and are retained by circlips.

Confirm the cap diameter and the 82mm cap-to-cap dimension against the joint being replaced before fitting.

Frequently asked questions

What is the RTC3346 universal joint used for?
The RTC3346 universal joint joins two sections of the propeller shaft, passing drive torque to the axle while allowing the shaft angle to change as the suspension articulates. It's an aftermarket joint with an 82mm cap-to-cap dimension, fitting Land Rover Series, Defender and Range Rover Classic propshafts.
Is one RTC3346 universal joint enough for my repair?
One RTC3346 covers a single joint, but a propshaft typically carries a universal joint at each end. Land Rover Series, Defender and Range Rover Classic vehicles usually run separate front and rear propshafts, so count the joints your job needs before ordering.
How do I confirm the RTC3346 fits my propshaft?
Check the 82mm cap-to-cap measurement and the bearing cap diameter against the joint being replaced before fitting. Land Rover propshaft joints vary in size despite looking alike, so this 82mm dimension is the key check for Series, Defender and Range Rover Classic applications.
What happens if a worn universal joint isn't replaced?
A worn universal joint usually starts with a driveline vibration or a clunk as drive engages, then develops noticeable play. If ignored, it can seize and damage the propshaft or yokes. Replacing both joints on the shaft at the same time is common on these older Land Rovers.
