Abstract
A device for the adjustment of universal joint shafts, especially universal joint shafts for automotive vehicles. One of the shaft ends is coupled to a differential in a torque-transmitting fashion by a synchronizing slide joint and the other shaft end is coupled a universal joint hub which in turn is coupled to the wheel. A frictional coupling element with a defined retaining force is arranged between the shaft and the universal joint hub and couples the hub to the shaft in axially displaceable fashion.
