TOP PERFORMANCE CENTRE BEARING fits Holden CB980

A tailshaft center bearing is a crucial component in a car's drivetrain system. It is responsible for supporting and stabilizing the tailshaft, which connects the transmission to the rear differential. The main purpose of the tailshaft center bearing is to maintain proper alignment and reduce vibrations generated by the rotational forces of the drivetrain.

When the engine transfers power to the rear wheels, the tailshaft rotates at high speeds. Without a center bearing, the tailshaft would be prone to excessive movement and misalignment, leading to intense vibrations throughout the vehicle. The center bearing is designed to absorb these vibrations and provide support to the tailshaft. It consists of a rubber or polyurethane mount that holds the tailshaft in position while minimizing noise and excessive movement. Overall, the tailshaft center bearing plays a crucial role in ensuring a smooth and stable ride by reducing drivetrain vibrations and preventing damage to other components."
