The constant velocity (CV) joint is a crucial component of a vehicle's drive shaft, which transmits power from the engine to the wheels. In this article, we'll take a closer look at what CV joints are, how they work, and why they're important for the proper functioning of a vehicle.   WHAT IS A CV JOINT?: A CV joint is a type of joint that allows power to be transmitted at a constant speed, regardless of the angle of the drive shaft. CV joints are typically located at the end of the drive shaft, near the wheel, and are designed to handle the rotational and angular movements of the drive shaft as the wheels move up and down and the suspension compresses and decompresses.   HOW CV JOINTS WORK: CV joints work by allowing the drive shaft to maintain a constant velocity, or speed, as the wheels move and the suspension compresses and decompresses. The joint is made up of two parts: a ball and socket, and a cage that surrounds the ball and socke...
