PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sliding universal joint designed so as to more favorably fit the actual operating condition and obtain a similar result extending over the nearly full life of the joint. SOLUTION: This sliding universal joint comprises a male element 1 intended to be fixed to a first shaft and including arms 6. Each arm 6 bears a ball-type journal 7 which is integral therewith. A female element 2 intended to be fixed to a second shaft defines two guide paths 8, 9 which are situated on either side of each journal. Intermediate members 3, 4 are interposed between respective journals and the associated guide paths 8, 9. These internediate members comprise a first member 3 which interacts with the first guide path 8 and has properties, with respect to transmission and/or generation of vibration, which are different from those exhibited by the interaction between the second member 4 and the second guide path 9.
