- The universal joints allow the drive shaft to move up and down, to allow for suspension travel
- Some drive shafts also have a slip joint that allows the drive shaft to make minor length changes as the vehicle suspension height changes
- Signs of universal joint failure can vary. A few signs to look for include:
- A "clunk" heard when the vehicle is put into gear, or hovering at about 10mph
- A vibration felt at low speeds such as 25-35 mph, at higher speeds such as 60 mph, or when braking at low speeds
