Most front-wheel drive automobiles, many all-wheel drive vehicles, and some rear-wheel drive vehicles all have CV joints. A CV joint is a joint made with the least amount of internal play and friction possible to transmit consistent power through a wide variety of angles. Two CV joints are located on either end of a CV shaft, which enables the front wheels to turn left and right and the suspension to flex over bumps as the vehicle is being pushed ahead. Vehicles with two-wheel drive have two CV shafts, whereas those with all four-wheel drive might have up to four CV shafts.
A CV axle shaft works by transferring power from the vehicle's transmission to the wheels while accommodating changes in wheel position and suspension movement without causing power loss or mechanical binding.
