On a propeller Plane it carries the propeller that makes the plane fly. On a ship it does the same to make the ship move.ArunSrinivassanWhat is the use of Propeller Shaft in each and every vehicle and also plz tell me what is the difference between Front Wheel , Rear Wheel and Four Wheel Drive???

On most motor vehicles of the older type it carries the radiator fan.

Front Wheel Drive
-Engine drives front wheels only
-Transverse engine configuration
-No driveshaft or propeller shaft
-Traction is improved by having weight of engine and transaxle over drive wheels
-More rear seat room due to flat floor pan, increased trunk space as there is no rear differential
-Decreased vehicle handling as rear tire traction is decreased
Rear Wheel Drive
-Engine drives rear wheels only
-Longitudinal engine configuration
-Driveshaft or Propeller Shaft is required to transmit power and torque from transmission to the rear differential
-Vehicle balance and handling is much improved
-Less interior room in the vehicle
-Traction problems because of lower rear vehicle weight over the drive wheels
Four Wheel Drive
-Engine drives all the four wheels using a transaxle
-Longitudinal engine configuration
-Two differential are present-one at front and one at rear
-Advantages of both front & rear wheel driveAre you sure? This action cannot be undone.
