1. OVERVIEW

The propeller shaft transfers the power through the transmission and transfer case to the front/rear 

axle differential carrier (final reduction gear).  It is manufactured by a thin rounded steel pipe to have 

the strong resisting force against the torsion and bending. Both ends of propeller shaft are connected 

to the spider and the center of propeller shaft is connected to the spline to accommodate the changes 

of the height and length. The rubber bushing that covers the intermediate bearing keeps the balance of 

rear propeller shaft and absorbs its vibration.

Function of propeller shaft

▶

Transmits driving torque.

Compensates the angle change (universal joint / CV joint).

Compensates the axial length change (splines for the slip joint).
