HALF SHAFT
DESCRIPTION
All Models Except Diesel and Turbo
1.6L, 2.0L and 2.4L naturally aspirated models
equipped with either an automatic or manual trans-
mission use an unequal-length halfshaft system. The
system incorporates two halfshaft assemblies (left
and right) that consist of an inner and outer constant
velocity (CV) joint and a solid interconnecting shaft
(Fig. 1). The right halfshaft is longer than the left
due to transaxle packaging and powertrain design.

Halfshafts used on both the right and left sides of
the vehicle use a tuned rubber damper weight
mounted to the interconnecting shaft (Fig. 1). The
damper weight applications vary by which side of the
vehicle the halfshaft is located on and the transmis-
sion application of the vehicle. When replacing a
halfshaft, be sure the replacement halfshaft has the
same damper weight as the original.
