Overview





The torque from the gearbox is transmitted to the driving wheels via the drive shafts.
Each shaft has three parts: the inner and outer constant velocity joints (CV joints) and of the shaft.
Slotted outer hinge part is inserted into the wheel hub and secured with a nut. CV joints are lubricated with grease, which can only be replaced when disassembling the hinge.
Cases should be checked periodically for damage and lubricant leakage.
The grease from the hinge to break follows a protective cover, or weakening the clips.
Torn boot band must be replaced immediately, otherwise it may damage the hinges. Replacing the cover includes the removal of the drive shaft.
Vibration and noise increased when starting off, engine braking and sharp turns arise at deterioration of constant velocity joints, spline shaft and loosening the wheel bolts.
