I did not know that! That would mean that they have to extend the drive shaft and can introduce any possible kind of vibration (probably have to add even another central bearing to carry the longer shaft? That would be another source of possible vibrations). I know that my son and his fellow mechanics keep their fingers as far away from the drive shaft as possible, because they know how critical this thing can be!
