Function
The principal task of the drive shafts is to transmit
power from the gearbox to the wheels.
They are also responsible for length compensa-
tion.
The engine/gearbox unit runs in elastic
bearings. At certain speeds, the unit begins to
oscillate in its mountings.

Race
This movement is compensated by the triple
roller joints, whereby the tripod star, together
with the rollers, slide within their races.
SSP 192/042
The triple roller joint housing is pushed over the
tripod star rollers by the movement of the engine/
gearbox unit.
The drive shaft remains stationary in the process.
