ABSTRACT:
A automotive vehicle drive train is provided including a first rotative member, a first plunging constant velocity joint with a front end connected with the first rotative member, the first plunging constant velocity joint having a rear end torsionally connected with the front end, a drive shaft with a front end and a rear end, the drive shaft front end being connected with the rear end of the first plunging constant velocity joint, a second plunging constant velocity joint with a front end and a rear end, the front end of the second plunging constant velocity joint being connected with the rear end of the drive shaft, the rear end of the second constant velocity joint being connected with a second drive member, a spring connected with the second plunging constant velocity joint biasing the front and rear ends of the second plunging constant velocity joint to a predetermine relative axial position with respect to one another, and a damper connected with the second plunging constant velocity joint to dampen any axial movement of the front and rear ends of the second constant velocity joint with respect to one another.
