Halfshaft Joint
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
CV joints consist of the following components:
- CV joint boot clamps
- Convoluted CV joint boots
- Tripod joint housings
- Ball and cage housings
- Retainer circlips
- Special CV high-temperature grease
The CV joints mate the interconnecting shaft with the stub shaft. The joints allow for smooth rotation of the interconnecting shaft and the stub shafts. They also adjust for length variances and angle requirements as the vehicle goes through jounce and rebound.
The halfshaft joints are not repairable and are serviced as assemblies only.
