Common Axle Problems and Symptoms
Axle issues can manifest in various ways, including vibrations, unusual noises, and difficulty steering. Common problems include worn bearings, damaged CV joints, and broken axle shafts. Capital Truck Repair's technicians are skilled in diagnosing these issues and providing appropriate repair solutions.
Bearings and Seals Maintenance
Wheel bearings and seals play a crucial role in axle performance, allowing wheels to rotate smoothly and preventing contaminants from entering the system. Capital Truck Repair offers bearing and seal inspection, repair, and replacement services to prevent premature wear and potential axle damage.
CV Joint Repair and Replacement
Constant Velocity (CV) joints are responsible for transferring torque from the transmission to the wheels while accommodating suspension and steering movements. Worn or damaged CV joints can lead to poor handling and increased vibrations. Capital Truck Repair's experienced team provides CV joint repair and replacement services to ensure your vehicle's optimal performance.
Axle Shaft Repairs
Axle shafts are designed to withstand significant stress, but they can still become damaged due to accidents, wear, or excessive loads. Capital Truck Repair specializes in axle shaft repair and replacement, restoring your vehicle's stability and safety on the road.
Differential Service
The differential is a vital component of the axle system, distributing power to the wheels and allowing them to rotate at different speeds while turning. Capital Truck Repair offers differential repair services, including gear replacement, fluid changes, and component inspection, ensuring smooth and efficient operation.
Preventative Maintenance and Inspection
Regular axle inspection and maintenance can prevent costly repairs and extend the lifespan of your vehicle's components. Capital Truck Repair provides comprehensive preventative maintenance services, including lubrication, alignment checks, and component inspections, to keep your vehicle running smoothly and safely.
What happens if you don’t fix a leaking axle seal?
A leaking axle seal can cause low differential fluid levels, leading to bearing wear, gear damage, and drivetrain failure. Over time, the leak can also contaminate brakes, reducing stopping power and increasing the risk of brake failure.
