F01G1060XW Bosch Drive Shaft

This thing’s job is pretty straightforward – it transmits power from your transmission or transfer case to the wheels, making them turn. It’s a rotating shaft, so it spins, and it does that constantly when the vehicle is moving. It’s typically a long, tubular metal component, and often has universal joints at each end to allow for movement and flexibility as the suspension works and the vehicle goes over bumps. Some have slip yokes in the middle to allow for length changes. Think of it as the link in the chain getting power to the wheels. Without it, the engine could be running perfectly, but the wheels wouldn't turn. It’s a key component of the drivetrain – basically everything that makes the car go. It’s usually found on rear – wheel drive and four – wheel drive vehicles. Front – wheel drive cars don’t need a traditional driveshaft because the transmission is integrated with the drive axles. Well, if this thing fails, you’re not going anywhere. You’ll definitely notice if it’s starting to go bad – you’d likely hear a loud clunking or vibration, especially under acceleration. It acts like a shield protecting other components, and if it fails catastrophically it can cause damage to your transmission or differential. Ignoring driveshaft problems is rarely a good idea. We carry a good selection of these at Fixparts Online, but any reputable auto parts store should have what you need. It’s something you want to replace promptly when it shows signs of wear, as continuing to drive with a damaged one can lead to much more expensive repairs down the line. Competitive edge: Drive Shaft (MPN F01G1060XW) comes with a 12-month warranty!
