GENERAL INFORMATION
M1261000100648
The front axle consists of front hubs, knuckles, wheel 
bearings and driveshafts, and has the following fea
-
tures:
•The wheel bearing is a double-row angular con-
tact ball bearing which incorporates the oil seals 
and is highly resistant to thrust loads.
•The driveshaft incorporates BJ-TJ type constant 
velocity joints with high transmission efficiency for 
low vibration and noise.
•The dynamic damper has been mounted on the 
driveshaft to reduce differential gear noise.
•ABS rotor for detecting the wheel speed is 
press-fitted to the BJ.
NOTE: .
•TJ: Tripod Joint
•BJ: Birfield Joint
