A driveshaft is a high-speed rotating component with few support points, making its dynamic balance crucial. Before leaving the factory, driveshafts typically undergo dynamic balancing tests and adjustments on a balancing machine. For front-engine, rear-wheel drive (RWD) vehicles, the driveshaft transmits rotation from the transmission to the differential's input shaft. It can consist of multiple sections, which are connected by universal joints.
