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.

What is Saturn vue intermediate steering shaft?

It is the connection between the rack and pinion unit and the steering mechanism/column. It is routed through the firewall and has a rubber boot where it passes from the interior to exterior of the vehicle. There are two U-joints on the shaft (one inside and one outside). There was a TSB or technical service bulletin advising to replace the bolt that attaches the shaft to the pinion system. Even though this has been recommended there are several (read a whole lot of) mechanics and parts folks who say it is better just to replace the entire lower/intermediate shaft.
