DRIVE SHAFTBirfield type constant velocity ball joints have been
provided for the drive shaft.
On the axle shaft side, the D.O.J. type has been
adopted to absorb the change in distance between
the joints that may be caused by the movement of
the suspension.
On the differential carrier side, the B.J. type has
been adopted which allows considerable flection in
keeping with the movement of the suspension.
