What is the best way to know if your axle is damaged?

Are you uncertain if your axle has been damaged? If you ran into a curb too hard or drove over a large pothole, your axle may have been damaged. You may experience some of the following as you drive if your axle has been damaged. To make sure the damage doesn’t get worse if you do experience some of these go to your mechanic and get them to inspect your axle.

• Noise – The noise from axle damage often comes from gears no longer lining up together. This causes the gears to grind against each other causing a sound while you drive. The axle just needs to get a dent or a bend for this to happen.
• Leaks – You may see fluids leaking from the axle. This is caused by a crack or a dent in an axle. This is a cause for concern because the axle may no longer be properly lubricated.
• Vibrations – A strong vibration will be felt when driving your vehicle from the axle damage. The feeling can also feel more intense as you turn the steering wheel, also. 

We modify, remanufacture, and rebuild differentials

As you drive your vehicle, your differential will become damaged just from normal wear and tear. If you do not wish to completely replace the differential as it starts to fail, rebuilding and remanufacturing the differential is a great option. Remanufacturing the differential will replace any damaged or worn-out part after an inspection has taken place. Rebuilding the differential is different because, after cleaning and inspecting the parts on the differential we will repair what we can and only replace parts as needed. We are also able to modify the differentials. This could be making modifications so that the differential works better for off-roading.
