KYM brand Uni Joints, any good?

Post by Rough60 »

Edit: I have bead locks written in the Subject, I meant Uni Joints, lol. Sorry for the confusion.

Hi all,
Just wondering if any one has tried these, also other brands people recommend.
It's for a 60 series cruiser.
Cheers.

Try to reuse your old circlips as the new ones are a little thinner.

I've had it for 50k but there is 380k on the clock.
vibration coming from behind gearbox when cruising, not on the throttle but not off, so I thought I'd change to see if that helps.
cheers
