if i remember rightly I first saw this in a 4x4 Australia issue about 10 years ago, if not there definatley was a thing in the news section on a newly designed CV joint. But this looks very similiar to it.

Thats awesome :finger:

I'd buy one for sure considering a new standard CV joint is going to cost me $800! :bad-words:

I like the no dust boot idea.. very easy to inspect :D (and show off to mates) :lol:

pfft "The homokinetic plane is that plane which is perpendicular to the plane of the axis of the input and output shafts and which bisects the obtuse angle between the axis of the input and output shafts"

I am sure that helps :roll: ;)

Yeah, I read the site and there is some dodgy waffle on it, but on the other hand the device itself seems to be getting good reviews.

A good, strong, constant-velocity joint that can operate at decent angles is has a lot of good points for us... it could even make IFS good!
This is not legal advice.

I've never heard of "homokinetic" (other than applied to certain Canadians :finger: ) but I understand the definition. I haven't read too much else, because I can't afford one so I don't care that much. :cry: *

I also believe its primary application is industrial plant and machinery, not offroad vehicles. Its potential to simplify (and reduce the cost of) industrial equipment (through permitting simpler designs which are cheaper to develop, manufacture and maintain) is awesome! :armsup: Go Aussie! :armsup: :armsup:
