The rear drive shaft assembly:
•  Transfers rotational power to the rear wheel
•  Enables smooth torque delivery under dynamic driving loads
•  Allows for independent suspension movement without vibration
•  Helps maintain proper alignment of drivetrain geometry.

Using quality bearings, grease, and boot materials, this shaft is built to endure the combined effects of torque, speed, and road conditions while minimising noise, vibration, and premature wear.

The rear drive shaft is a critical drivetrain component. When worn or failing, symptoms may include:
•  Clicking or popping noises during cornering
•  Vibration or shuddering upon acceleration
•  Visible grease leakage from cracked CV boots
•  Play or looseness felt at wheel hubs.

A worn or damaged drive shaft can affect handling, accelerate wear on bearings and joints, and even lead to complete loss of drive force if not addressed. An drive shaft restores correct alignment and torque transfer, improving reliability and driving confidence.

Replace the drive shaft if:
•  CV boots are cracked or leaking grease
•  You hear CV joint noise during steering or acceleration
•  Vibration is present under load
•  Play is detected in the axle/hub during inspection
•  You’re servicing the rear suspension or differential
