A U-joint arrangement for attaching a propeller shaft to a pinion flange is disclosed herein. At least one of the pinion flange and the propeller shaft has a pair of full-round receivers. The U-joint arrangement includes, but is not limited to, a U-joint having a cross member and a plurality of bearing cups rotatably mounted to the cross member. A pair of the bearing cups each have an outer diameter that is substantially less than an inner diameter of the pair of full-round receivers. The U-joint arrangement further includes a pair of retaining members that engage the pair of bearing cups and that are configured to engage the pair of full-round receivers. The pair of retaining members are further configured to support the pair of bearing cups within the pair of full-round receivers when the pair of retaining members are engaged with the pair of full-round receivers.
