Replacing a damaged spindle end and restoring a bent axle

The damaged axle is taken by our experts at HRA to be torn down to the bare housing. The rebuilding process continues by straightening the axle. A lathe is used in the next step to remove the damaged spindle from the axle. We then build, in-house a replacement spindle end which is welded onto the restored axle, completing the process.

HRA’s repair process for an axle assembly

For the rebuilt axle to be road-worthy we take numerous steps to rebuild the axle. Parts of the axle are first removed such as the rotors, bearing set, axle shafts, and the ring and pinion. Next, we use a lathe to properly shape the axle. Afterward, using an OEM replacement ring and pinion set, or a new set of ring and pinion if the OEM set does not meet factory specifications. An inspection of the bearing and axle shafts is done, then the axle is cleaned. After reassembling the axle, we will paint the axle and fill it with fluid completing the repair.
