Rear Half Shaft

DESCRIPTION

The inner joints of both half shaft assemblies are tripod joints. The outer joints of both assemblies are Rzeppa Joints. The tripod joints are true constant velocity (CV) joint assemblies, which allow for the changes in half shaft length through the jounce and rebound travel of the rear suspension.

The inner tripod joint of both half shafts is splined into the rear differential assembly and retained by a snap ring. The outer CV joint has a stub shaft that is splined into the wheel hub and retained by a steel hub nut.
