What does the axle assembly consist of?
The half shaft assembly comprises a first connection shaft, a first universal joint, a first universal joint sheath, a drive half shaft, a second universal joint sheath, a second universal joint and a second connection shaft. These components together constitute the half shaft assembly, in which the first universal joint and the first universal joint sheath are fixed together through a specific connection method to ensure the robustness and tightness of the entire structure, thereby extending the service life of the half shaft assembly.
Does the shaft assembly leak affect the use
influence
The oil leakage of the axle assembly has a serious impact on the use of the vehicle.
The oil leakage of the axle will lead to a reduction in the amount of oil in the rear axle, which directly affects the normal lubrication and accelerates the early damage of the parts. Oil leakage may also penetrate into the brake drum, reducing the effectiveness of the brake system, and bringing hidden dangers to travel safety. Long-term oil leakage may also lead to abnormal noise, jitter, and even fracture under long-term dry wear and high torque.
The semi-shaft, also known as the drive shaft, is the key component that transfers torque between the gearbox reducer and the drive wheels. The internal and external ends each have a universal joint, which is connected with the gear of the reducer and the inner ring of the hub bearing through the spline on the universal joint. Therefore, the normal operation of the axle is crucial to the drive and safety of the vehicle.
The reasons for the oil leakage of the axle may include the oil level of the rear axle housing exceeding the normal height, the pressure increase due to the blockage of the air hole in the axle housing, and the decrease of the tightness of the oil seal. If not handled in time, it will lead to abnormal braking system over a long period of time, which will bring safety risks.
Therefore, the oil leakage of the axle will not only affect the technical performance and driving safety of the vehicle, but also may cause waste of fuel and lubricating oil, consume power, affect the cleanliness of the car, and even cause environmental pollution. It is necessary to diagnose the problem of oil leakage in time and take effective measures to prevent and repair it.
One or a pair of axles?
The half shaft can be replaced when it is damaged, there is no need to replace a pair, the half shaft of the car is independent of each other, as long as the damaged side is replaced, there is no need for symmetrical replacement, when the half shaft is faulty, it will cause the vehicle to turn abnormal sound and friction sound.
Where does axle replacement need to go?
Axle damage can be replaced by the brand after-sales service department, or the local repair shop for replacement, both places can effectively replace the axle, will not affect the normal use of vehicle axle, motor vehicle axle is a very important part of the vehicle must be replaced in time after damage.
Is the axle easy to replace?
Car replacement axle is more troublesome, you need to use special tools to the repair shop to replace, you can not replace the vehicle axle, when there is any problem in the motor vehicle, it needs to be repaired in time, it will not affect the use of the vehicle, including the vehicle axle.
