The propeller shaft, also known as the cardan shaft, is an important component in rear-wheel and all-wheel drive. It’s job is to transfer the torque in a buckled drive train from the engine or transmission unit to the axle differential. The drive shaft has universal joints so that the motor and axle are not rigidly connected without suspension. It thus ensures mobility during normal driving and compensates for differences in height.
The DT Spare Parts range includes more than 170 different propeller shafts for truck, bus and transporter.
