Looking for Used Drive Shaft?

The function of drive shafts is to transfer torque and convert engine rotation into motion for rear-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive cars. Consequently, they play a crucial role in supplying power to the engine and gears, ultimately leading to the vehicle's wheel rotation. Additionally, drive shafts contribute to the braking system, making them an integral component of any automobile. In the event of a faulty or impaired driveshaft, your vehicle will come to an immediate halt while potentially causing damage to both the engine and the brakes. Therefore, it is imperative to promptly replace any driveshaft displaying signs of damage. Furthermore, ensuring regular maintenance for your driveshaft is highly advisable to maintain its optimal condition.

What is Drive Shaft?

A drive shaft is a most important part of a vehicle that transfers torque from the transmission to the differential, and then the differential delivers this torque to the front wheels to run the vehicle. The drive shaft is also known as a Cardan shaft, propeller shaft, or prop shaft. In simple words, the main function of the propeller or drive shaft is to deliver the engine torque from the differential to the vehicle wheel. The position of the driveshaft changes according to the car model and configurations of the car front-wheel drive, four-wheel drive, and front-engine rear-drive. Many other vehicles such as boats, locomotives, motorcycles, trucks, and vans also have prop shafts. These shafts have a different number of prismatic joints, leaf joints, universal joints, or jaw couplings to enable change in distance and alignment between drive and driving parts.
