What Does a Centre Bearing Do?
In vehicles with a two-piece driveshaft, the centre bearing supports the middle section of the propshaft. It allows the shaft to rotate smoothly while absorbing movement and reducing vibration through its rubber mount.
If the centre bearing fails, symptoms may include:
-
Driveline vibration
-
Knocking or thudding under load
-
Whining at certain speeds
-
Excessive propshaft movement
Timely replacement helps maintain smooth power delivery and protects transmission components.
