I am about to replace my universal joint and I was just wondering if they make anykind of lighter weight or some kind of performance one? I know they have lighter driveshafts, of course I know a U-joint doesnt weigh that much, but hey every little bit helps.

 

If you have ever held a U-joint in your hand you'd see that they really weigh next to nothing considering the ammount of force that these things have to hold up to. Even if there were a lightened U-joint I would never want to use one. It would have to be made of titanium or something similar. Imagine the cost to save an ounce or two?

 

Thanks never really thought of it like that.
