It's called the rear transmission seal. Or I've sometimes heard it reffered to as the 'tailshaft' seal although I don't know the accuracy of that.
It will be on the back of the transmission where the drive shaft goes in, and bolted to the cross member
tail shaft
A drive shaft is a tubular piece of pipe, usually made of metal. The shaft extends from the back of the transmission to the real axle and is considered part of the drive train. It is what delivers the power from the motor and transmission to the rear axle and tires.
If you are talking about where the driveshaft goes into the back of the transmission That would be called the transmission tail shaft housing.
The center shaft in a 2-wheel drive transmission is shorter then a 4-wheel drive transmission because the 2-wheel drive does not have a transfur case on the back of it. NOW, You can take the center shaft out of the 4-wheel drive trans. and install it in the 2-wheel trans. and it will now work in the 4-wheel drive vehicle. To change the center shaft requires both transmission to be taken all the way apart.
on the transmission at the back where the drive shaft goes in and one on top of the rear end
Not all driveshafts are the same but as for a rear wheel drive vehicle you can remove the bolts on the flange of the rear differential which will release the back side of the shaft and then just pull it straight out of the transmission.
there is a gear sticking out at the back of the engine block a couple centimetres that the transmission bolts to then the drive shaft is attached to turn your wheels (rear wheel drive) if your car is fronwheel drive it will not have a driveshaft.
there are 4 bolts on the upper drive shaft where it connects to the transmission and 4 bolts on the lower part of the drive shaft where it connects to the differential the drive shaft must be dropped to change a u joint and bolt back up the way it came off
The sensor is located in the tail shaft housing of the transmission (where the drive shaft attaches to the transmission). It screws into the housing and has a two wire plug on it. hope this helps
Yes because you have to take the bolts out of the transmission and slide back enough to replace your clutch.
A 1998 Oldsmobile Delta 88 is a rear wheel drive car. This means that a drive shaft runs from the back of the transmission to the rear axle to transfer power.
