A noisy tailshaft is one of those problems that’s easy to hear and hard to diagnose from the driver’s seat. A clunk, a hum, a shudder through the floor can all point to different components, and mixing them up can lead to the unnecessary and often costly replacement of the wrong part.

Universal joints are a central driveline component in equipment ranging from passenger cars to high-powered industrial processing machines.

We explore the history of vehicle transmissions and how we got from the era of the horse and cart to modern, high-performance gearboxes.

In this blog, we are going to look into the history of driveshafts and see how they make our machinery and our world go round.

When the first vehicles rolled off the assembly line, they were made top to bottom by the manufacturer, the same brand all the way through. But as original equipment manufacturers continue to specialise, corporations diversify and the world grows ever smaller, today’s machines are delivered with a brand on the front that rarely matches that on the engine, transmission, driveshaft and other parts. Which, when it comes time to rebuild or repair, can send you hunting across the world.
