Conventional wisdom typically sets no time or mileage interval to replace drive-axle boots, which are more commonly known as CV-joint boots (“CV” being short for “constant velocity”). Although they ...

Constant velocity axles, also known as CV axles, play a vital role in a vehicle's ability to drive. They are the drivetrain's final components that connect to the wheels and transfer the power ...

The CV axle (or the Constant-Velocity joint) is critical to any vehicle's front driveline. Of course, we all know the engine burns fuel to produce power, and the transmission sends the engine's power ...

One of the largest original equipment suppliers in the world, GKN Driveline, has introduced a new, lightweight constant velocity (CV) joint for rear-wheel drive platforms. The new joint allows a more ...

GKN Driveline has developed a new family of lightweight constant velocity joint (CV joint) systems that enable rear-wheel drive platforms to save more than 4kg of weight. Higher performance drivelines ...

Have you ever been driving and heard a clicking or felt a shudder under your feet while making a turn? If so, the culprit could be a bad CV joint. CV stands for constant velocity, and these joints are ...

A common cross-type, single U-joint loses strength as the driveline angle increases. The installation of a suspension lift kit prompts the need for a heavy-duty, constant-velocity (CV) rear driveline.

Universal joints allow drive shafts to move up and down with the suspension while the shaft is moving so power can be transmitted when the drive shaft isn’t in a straight line between the transmission ...
