ABSTRACT:
A universal joint assembly includes a yoke having a recess formed in an arm. A bearing cap is rotatably mounted on a trunnion of a cross and received in the recess of the yoke arm. The bearing cap includes an outer circumferential surface engaging the recess, an end surface and at least one axially extending protrusion formed in the end surface. A retainer strap is secured to the yoke arm to retain the bearing cap in the recess. A slot is formed in the retainer strap which receives the protrusion of the bearing cap to prevent rotation of the bearing cap relative to the yoke.
