Purpose, Function
Engine noise and vibration have been reduced due to adoption of a bell joint on the wheel side of the constant velocity joint.
A low noise and vibration double offset joint with low slide resistance has been adopted for the differential side of the constant velocity joint. Due to this booming resonance at high speed is reduced.
An extremely durable plastic has been adopted for the wheel side boot.
