====De-Dion==== This design combines the excellent camber control of the beam axle, with the fully independent rear suspension's reduction of unsprung weight and elimination of driveshaft torque. The differential unit is solidly connected to the chassis and two universal joints and a splined connector are used on each of the two axles. A single assembly, usually consisting of a large diameter tube bent to avoid interference with the differential unit, connects the wheel uprights.
