Why the Steering Column Universal Joint (UJ) is Important:

The universal joint (UJ) is a critical part of your vehicle`s steering system, enabling the smooth transfer of steering input from the steering column to the steering rack. Over time, UJs can wear out due to constant use, leading to loose, unresponsive steering or even steering failure. A worn UJ can cause excessive play in the steering wheel, making it harder to control the vehicle, especially in manual steering setups. Replacing a worn UJ restores tight, accurate steering, ensuring your vehicle remains safe and easy to drive.

Compatibility:

• Mk2 Golf (left-hand drive, non-power steering models from 1990 onwards)
• Mk2 Jetta (left-hand drive, non-power steering models from 1990 onwards)
• Chassis Number: Fits vehicles from 1G-MW359 822 onwards

This UJ is designed specifically for left-hand drive models with manual steering, providing the precise fitment required for later Mk2 Golf and Jetta models.
