The Axle Shaft in Toyota 4Runner vehicles are very important as they transmit torque from the differential to the driving wheels so that they can spin individually. This design is useful during cornering where the speeds of the wheels are different mostly due to the required level of traction. Normally it is made from chrome-molybdenum or carbon steel which is strong enough to support the weight of the vehicle and the wheels so that they remain in alignment. Through the years, there were changes in the design of the axle shafts used in 4Runner - the live axle for transmitting of torque and supporting of weight and the split axle for suspension. Engineered axle type is another important aspect of cars; due to the straight axles the vehicles are made stronger and tough to handle whereas, the split axles facilitate better performance and comfort. In conclusion, the Axle Shaft is vital to the general performance and steadiness of the Toyota 4Runner.
