Rear Axle - Evolution: General Description: Notes

The rear axle consists of rear wheel hub assembly, knuckles and driveshafts, and it has the following features:

• The wheel bearing incorporates a unit ball bearing (double-row angular contact ball bearing) for reduced friction.
• The rear wheel hub assembly combines the hub, wheel bearing, housing, and oil seal in a single unit for fewer parts, better rigidity, improved assembly precision, and better structural organization.
• The driveshaft on wheel side incorporates EBJ type constant velocity joint.
• The driveshaft on differential side incorporates TJ type constant velocity joint.
• ABS rotors for detecting the wheel speed are press-fitted to the EBJ.
• For environmental protection, a lead-free grease is used on the joints.
