Abstract
A damped automotive driveline component can be propshaft, a bar shaft, a torque tube housing, a power transfer unit (PTU) housing, or a final drive unit (FDU) housing, among other possibilities. The component is equipped with a dampener in order to dissipate vibration experienced during use of the component. The damper includes metal wire strands. Relative movement among the metal wire strand is believed to damp the vibrations.
