A constant velocity universal joint has an outer joint member with a bore therethrough and an inner joint member within the bore. A plurality of torque transmitting elements, such as balls, are positioned within opposed grooves formed in the facing surfaces of the inner and outer joint elements. The balls are retained in a ball plane by means of a cage which has an inner concave surface guided upon a convex spherical surface of the inner joint member and an outer spherical surface guided within the bore. The outer spherical face of the cage has at least three circumferentially spaced guide ridges which are guided within a plurality of grooves formed within the bore of the outer joint member and between the ball grooves.
