Definition

The drive axle is a split axle with a differential and universal joints between the two half axles.

In rear-wheel drive cars and trucks, the engine turns a driveshaft (also called a propeller shaft or tail-shaft) which transmits rotational force to a drive axle at the rear of the vehicle.

Also see Front Wheel Drive and All Wheel Drive.
