Vehicles with automatic gearboxes are equipped with modified inner joints (triple roller joints). These joints have three rollers evenly offset by 120° on a tripod instead of 6 balls.
Repairs to the inner joint is not possible at present. If damaged, replace complete drive shaft (except for outer joint).
