This Chapter covers the components located between the rear of the engine and the driving wheels of the vehicle (excluding the transmission, which is covered in the Manual Transmission Chapter). The components covered can be divided into two categories: the clutch and the drive shafts. The following Sections describe the design and operation of each component, and provide procedures for inspection, removal, disassembly and repair of the components in both groups.
Since most of the procedures in this Chapter are performed under the vehicle, pay particular attention to securely supporting the vehicle in the raised position.
