| 1 - FRONT PROPELLER SHAFT ASSEMBLY |
WARNING:
Due to propeller shaft imbalance concerns, front propeller shaft service is limited to rubber coupler and entire shaft replacement. The single-cardan universal joints are not serviceable.
AWD models utilize a "two-piece" front propeller shaft design to transmit torque to the front axle assembly. See Fig 1. This two-piece design consists of:
- Front and rear shaft segments
- Single-Cardan u-joints at end flanges
- Rubber boot at front/rear segment interface
