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 does the RTC3346G universal joint do?

The RTC3346G universal joint connects two sections of the propeller shaft, transmitting drive torque while allowing the angle between the transfer box output and the axle to change as the suspension moves. It's a GKN joint with an 82mm cap-to-cap dimension, fitting Land Rover Series, Defender and Range Rover Classic propshafts.

How many universal joints does a propshaft need?

A propshaft typically uses a universal joint at each end, so most propshafts carry two. This listing covers one joint. On Land Rover Series, Defender and Range Rover Classic, the front and rear propshafts each have their own joints, so check how many your job needs before ordering.

How do I know this is the right universal joint for my propshaft?

Confirm the 82mm cap-to-cap dimension and the bearing cap diameter against the joint you're replacing before fitting. Several Land Rover propshaft joints look similar but differ in size. This GKN joint suits Series 1, Series 2 and 3, Defender and Range Rover Classic applications using the 82mm size.

What are the signs a universal joint needs replacing?

A worn universal joint typically shows as a vibration through the floor at speed, a clunk when drive is taken up, or visible play when you twist the propshaft by hand. Left unchecked, a failing joint can seize and damage the propshaft. Replacing both joints on a shaft together is common practice.
