GENERAL INFORMATION

The drive shaft has two joints (D.O.J. and B.J.)
at each side. The D.O.J. joint at the differential
side can slide smoothly in the axial direction. The
B.J. type constant velocity joint is used at the hub
side.
In addition, for vehicles with ABS, an ABS rotor
for detecting vehicle wheel speed is mounted in
the drive shaft. The wheel bearing used is an
angular ball bearing, which is resistant against
lateral load.
