Each outer CV joint has a target wheel on the outer diameter. This target is used by the ABS wheel speed sensor for vehicle and wheel speed calculations.
Each rear drive halfshaft comprises two CV joints (inner and outer), boots and a solid barshaft, which is retained in the rear differential by a circlip.
The CV joints used on the rear drive halfshafts share the same design and operating principles as the front drive halfshafts CV joints (see 'Halfshaft Joint' section for more information on CV joints). The rear drive halfshaft inner joint hubs are retained by peening over the lip of the joint body.
