POWERSTEEL - C.V.joint Drivetrain System CONSTANT-VELOCITY JOINTS CV joints (Constant Velocity Joints) allow a rotating driveshaft to transfer power through a variable angle, at constant rotational speed, without an appreciable increase in friction or play, freely allowing the wheel to move up and down with the suspension and rotate about a vertical axis for steering. They are mainly used in front wheel drive and all wheel drive cars. However, rear wheel drive cars with equipped with independent rear suspension typically use CV joints at the ends of the rear axle halfshafts. Some AWD (all wheel drive) vehicles use them for all four half-axles and on the front-to- rear driveshaft (propeller shaft) as well. CV DRIVE AXLES - Axle is measured 100% after assembly to ensure proper fit - all CV axles meet or exceed O.E. form, fit and function. - Threads are precision rolled to ensure proper fit when axle nut is installed - 100% Neoprene boots resist bellow,Premium Quality Boots and Grease - diameter is precision-machined after heat treatment to ensure correct surface finish, promoting long seal life. - State of the art heat treatment performed on all axles to improve wear characteristics of metal components - Neoprene boots pre-installed - Nuts included . - Precision cold rolled splines and threads . - 100% solid precision machined axle bars .

The CV joints are needed to transfer the torque from the transmission to the drive wheels at a constant Speed, while accommodating the up-and-down motion of the suspension. In front-wheel drive cars, the CV joints also have to be able to deliver the torque to the front wheels during turns. There are two most commonly used types of CV joints: A ball-type and a tripod-type. Ball-type CV joints are commonly used on the outer side of the drive shafts, while the tripod-type CV joints mostly used on the inner side of the drive shafts in front-wheel drive cars. A CV joint is packed with a grease and sealed tight by the rubber or plastic boot. A CV joint doesn t need Any maintenance and can last very long, as long as the protective CV joint boot is not damaged. A most common problem with the CV joints is when the protective boot gets damaged. Once this happens, The grease comes out and the moisture and dirt come in, causing the CV joint to wear faster and eventually fail due to lack of lubrication And corrosion. Usually the outer CV joint boot breaks first, as it has to endure more movement than the Inner one. One of the early signs of a broken CV joint boot is a dark grease splattered on the inner side of the rims And around the inside of a drive wheel; Around the area where the CV joint is located. If you take your car For a maintenance to a repair shop regularly, your mechanic can spot the problem early and let you know. Sometimes you can see the cracks and signs of wear on the boots before they break.
