Axle

When a car axle breaks, either abruptly (like hitting a curb) or due to frequent overuse (like driving with too much payload), you’ ll usually know there’ s a problem because the tires simply won’ t spin. However, there are some signs and symptoms of axle damage that might indicate a broken axle—and a visit to an axle repair shop is on the horizon.

The most obvious sign of a broken axle is when your car tires won’ t rotate. The car will turn on fine. Its engine will sound happy as a clam when you rev it. There aren’t any electrical issues—no dashboard warning lights, no weird clicking sounds. Why does this occur? It’ s usually the result of a bent axle joint that’ s finally snapped like a Slim Jim. You’ ll need a tow truck to haul it to a repair shop near you for an inspection and axle damage repair. Car axles are fairly resilient, but when they’ re under pressure, you’ ll feel it in the gas pedal. When an axle is bent or damaged, your vehicle might begin to strain. You’ ll put it into gear and notice right away that power isn’ t getting transferred to the wheels. A straining vehicle doesn’ t necessarily mean that you have a bad car axle, however. This should accompany some other signs of axle damage. Along with straining to move, the vehicle may also make sputtering, bumping or clunking sounds. This is because the axle is not able to transfer adequate power to the wheels.These bad axle sounds will be audible when the car begins to move as well as when turning the wheels.

Underinflated tires, unaligned wheels and loose lug nuts can also make your vehicle vibrate. But if you notice any other signs of axle damage, don’ t disregard it! Your car is incredibly dangerous to drive once you begin noticing vibrations caused by a damaged axle or other suspension problems. You’ ll notice some braking issues once your bent axle starts going bad. The brake pads will begin to shift and become misaligned with the wheels and rotors, and once that happens, you may notice the vehicle skids or slips to a stop. Over time, the brakes will eventually cease to function at all. The brake seal on an AWD or 4WD vehicle’ s driveshaft may shift and begin to leak small amounts of oil. This will be noticeable when looking at the brake drum. Axle CV joints can also leak grease, which is not as detectable. However, once this happens, the joints will collect dirt dry out, and deteriorate quickly.

A complete axle assembly on construction equipment performs a number of roles in the drive system of the machine. First the axle assembly must link wheels together and hold them in position as the machine traverses ground. This requires a heavy duty, rugged axle housing to protect the more delicate rotating parts of the axle.

Often, wheels must be allowed to turn independently of one another while still being linked. This variable rotation speed allows the axle to avoid undue stress to the axle itself, as well as, the wheels and the entire machine in conditions where one wheel must turn faster than the other (like when cornering). To perform this task, a differential sits at the center of the axle assembly and allows each wheel to be engaged independently. Since the direction of the force must also be rotated perpendicularly before it can be applied to the wheels, the differential is responsible for this job, as well.

The force output from an engine and distributed to the axle shafts and the wheels often must be converted from a high-speed, low-torque force into a lower-speed, high-torque force. In large construction equipment where low-torque force is required to carry heavy loads or provide steady, firm forward motion, final drives connected to the axle housing and the wheels utilize gear reduction to achieve the required output.
