Mazda CX-9 2007 Service Highlights page 152

REAR DRIVE SHAFT STRUCTURE
• 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.
