U-joint vs pot coupler

Personally, I went from the Pot Coupler to the U-Joint when upgrading my suspension from factory components to RMS AlterKation with Rack and Pinion steering.

Worked great, easy to install, no issues. I think the pot coupler is supposed to help with dissipating energy transmitted back up through the shaft when hitting variations in road surface and keeps the lower column bearing from getting damaged by shocks to the steering system while driving. I read that somewhere (I think Mopar Action Magazine) but I stand to be corrected .

Much more knowledgeable members on here who know about this . I'll be very interested to hear their response to this.
