universal joints
(Otomotiv) Couplings located at either end of the driveshaft on a rearwheel drive vehicle that allow the shaft to move freely, without affecting the more rigid transmission shaft, and to absorb the movement of the axle and wheels. Also called U-joints. On cars with transverse engines, these are called constant velocity joints
