2585405 - Introduction - AXLE

Drive shafts with constant velocity joints at the wheel end and tripod joints at the differential end make up a transmission assembly that transmits motion from the gearbox to the drive wheels.

DRIVESHAFTS

The transmission is the type with wheel and gearbox side constant velocity joints.An intermediate shaft transmits the power to the right driveshaft which is the same as the left.This solution makes it possible to achieve a perfectly symmetrical distribution of the drive torque at both wheels. This avoids the bending curvature of the longer driveshaft, due to the drive torque transmitted which could cause variations in the vehicle dynamic geometry.
