Front Wheel Drive Shaft Constant Velocity Joint

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6, 2006 Chevrolet Uplander, and 2006 Buick Terraza. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The front wheel drive shaft constant velocity joint is of the Rzeppa joint design.

The shaft end, which mates with the knuckle/hub, has a helical spline. The helical spline ensures a tight, press-type fit.

This design prevents end play between the hub bearing and the front wheel drive axle.
