Like a driveshaft, the propshaft transfers movement from the engine to the wheels. Propshafts are usually found in rear-wheel-drive vehicles. The propshaft transmits movement to the rear, where the driveshafts then transfer the power sideways to the wheels. A propshaft can also transfer power at an angle through a shaft coupling, which is useful when the engine is positioned higher than the wheels.
Buying a propshaft
A propshaft is subject to significant force, making it susceptible to wear. While the shaft itself is very strong and not easily damaged, the shaft coupling and Hardy disc absorb shocks from the gearbox and are more prone to wear.
