A mounting is provided for a bearing cup located in a yoke arm of a universal joint. The mounting includes at least two diametrically-opposite recessed locating surfaces on the closed end of the bearing cup. Threaded fasteners are engaged in threaded holes in the yoke arm on diametrically-opposite sides of a bore therein in which a bearing cup is to be located. Annular locating surfaces below the heads of the fasteners and either separate from or integral therewith are also provided. These engage the recessed locating surfaces on the bearing cup and also locating surfaces on the yoke arm, the latter surfaces either surrounding the bore or positioned on opposite sides of the bore around the threaded holes. The mounting can be in kit form to replace bearing cups of an existing universal joint. In this instance, the replacement kit includes a bearing cup with the recessed locating surfaces, two threaded fasteners, and two of the annular locating surfaces for each yoke arm. |
