A universal joint comprises a coupling member (7) for connecting a first member (3) and a second member (5) for a pivotal movement about first and second mutually orthogonal axes (10, 20). A locking arrangement for locking the first and second members (3, 5) in a predetermined positing against a movement about the respective pivot axes (10, 20) is provided by inserting a locking pin (61) through a first and second recess (74,53), at the ends of first and second members (3, 5) respectively.
