Abstract
A versatile mounting is provided for a bearing cup or race located in a yoke arm of a universal joint. The mounting includes an adapter sleeve which receives a bearing cup and enables it to be located in a larger bore of an existing yoke arm. The adapter sleeve has an annular flange which extends inwardly and contacts a closed end of the bearing cup. The sleeve also has at least one locating surface by means of which it can be located in a predetermined position in the yoke arm bore by means of a mounting fastener which engages the sleeve locating surface and a locating surface on the yoke arm adjacent the bore.
