Cardan shaft bearing

Support for the truck drivetrain On trucks with a long wheelbase, the propshaft must be supported at one or more points to prevent vibrations and deflection. A febi propshaft centre bearing provides stable rotation of the shaft, which reduces wear on universal joints and the final drive. Bearings and complete sets Depending on the truck model, centre bearings are available with an integrated roller bearing or a ball bearing. Protempo also supplies versions without an integrated roller bearing. For fast and correct installation, complete sets are available with all additional parts. These OE-compliant parts fit directly without modifications. The role of the rubber suspension The rubber suspension of the centre bearing is an important part. This element absorbs the movements of the chassis and dampens vibrations from the drivetrain. Worn rubber can lead to noise and extra load on the bearings, requiring timely replacement.
