A constant velocity universal joint for the transmission of torque between driving and driven shafts having a member secured to one of the shafts on which are mounted a plurality of trunnions each having a partial ball member slidably and rotationally mounted thereon. The ball members have a generally spherical outer surface and the other shaft has a member thereon having at least three cooperating grooves therein which receive the ball members. A torque transmitting member is connected to the one shaft and to the outer end of the trunnions whereby torque is transmitted through the outer end of the trunnions as well as at the connection of the trunnions to provide for parallel torque paths into the trunnions to prevent distortion and failure thereof during operation.
