Sideshaft

Each sideshaft has two constant velocity joints – a fixed joint at the wheel end and a plunging joint at the gearbox end, connected by an interconnecting shaft.
At GKN Automotive we appreciate the impact of these critical components on a vehicle’s dynamic performance, noise, vibration, harshness (NVH), durability, efficiency and weight saving, and their key role in enhancing power delivery, handling and comfort. Our advanced sideshafts are the result of a continuing commitment to researching and developing new means to optimise and improve total sideshaft performance, each fully supported by our long experience from the very first days of sideshaft application.
