An axle shaft joint is a component in a vehicle's drivetrain that connects the axle shaft to the wheels or differential, allowing for the transfer of power from the engine to the wheels while accommodating for suspension movement. Common types include constant velocity (CV) joints, which enable smooth rotation at various angles, and universal joints, which allow for flexibility in alignment. These joints are critical for maintaining traction and handling while providing a smooth driving experience. Regular maintenance is essential to prevent wear and failure, which can lead to significant vehicle issues.
