Think 1410 U-joints are Big?

You Ain't Seen Nothing...

Check out the biggest u-joint we've ever laid eyes on...


This massive U-Joint weighs nearly 300-lbs and costs just under $40,000.00 to purchase.

Note the grease fittings on top of the unit.

We found this beauty during a recent trip to Pat's Driveline in Edmonton, British Colombia.

We were told this particular joint was used for the drive system of a ski lift in Western Canada.

Large Drive Shaft

Another large shaft, not nearly as big as the one for the ski lift, was also impressive to behold.

Check out the soft drink bottle sitting on top of it for size comparison.

Does anyone know when we'll see shafts of this size at TTC?
