The Acura MDX Axle Shaft transmits power from the engine to the wheels but allows the wheels to spin separately. This is an important attribute for confident cornering and a smooth ride. Built in matching pairs of tough steel, each Axle Shaft connects the differential to a drive wheel and is dependent upon splined ends that lock firmly into side gears and wheel hubs. Early sport utility layouts often had a solid axle that contained both differential and shafts, but every generation of Acura MDX favors independent suspension and uses halfshaft style Axle Shaft units with constant velocity joints at both ends. These joints flex with suspension travel, providing stability to the MDX on uneven roads, and rubber boots protect the grease inside since tears let dirt cause the clicks and vibration drivers dread. If an Axle Shaft has become bent from hitting hard curbs, then twisted splines can make simple bearing fixes very problematic. Some designs incorporate an intermediate shaft to balance the length from the transaxle in order to minimize torque steer. Compared to the rugged but heavier solid axle, the halfshaft Axle Shaft has less weight, more responsiveness, and less unsprung mass, giving the Acura MDX agile handling and quiet comfort. This refinement is helpful for Acura drivers to enjoy launches without harsh vibration.
