Hmm, that doesn't make much sense to me. CV stands for constant
velocity, so the angular momentum of the shaft stays relatively
constant, instead of the sinusoidal loading of u-joints. These joints
have worked pretty well in axle shafts for now about fifty years.Â
Providing that there's nothing amiss in the design or manufacture or
torque specs of the specific CV joints used in the newer propshaft, I
don't see any problem with them. If anything, they should smooth out
the irregular loading on the pinion. And, if the linear displacement of
two CV joints is the same as the splined driveshaft, that eliminates the
splines.
Nope, doesn't make sense to me.
Cheers.
