| Item | Description |

| 1 | RH front drive halfshaft |

| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | RH outer CV joint |

| 3 | RH inner CV joint |
| 4 | LH inner CV joint |
| 5 | LH front drive halfshaft |

The front drive shafts are similar in their construction. The only difference is the lengths of each shaft, the RH drive shaft is a longer shaft with an extended stem.
The outer CV joints have a target wheel on the outer diameter. This is used by the ABS wheel speed sensor for vehicle and wheel speed calculations.
Each drive shaft comprises two CV joints (inner and outer), boots, an outer tube and a solid barshaft, which is retained in the front differential by a circlip (see 'Halfshaft Joint' section for more information on CV joints).
