CV Axle Inspection
The CV axle is a drive axle located between the drive wheels. Its role is to deliver consistent power to the wheels as they traverse various types of terrain. The CV axle is attached to the wheels by CV joints. The inner CV joints connect the transmission to the CV axle while the outer CV joints connect the CV axle to the wheels. The CV joints connect the CV axle to the wheels, and deliver power while maintaining a constant velocity.
The CV axle assembly—the axle shaft, CV joints, and CV boots—is designed to deliver flexible power to the wheels. This means that the axle is able to transmit required levels of torque to the wheels regardless of the angle of the axle. At first, CV axles were commonly used in front-wheel drive vehicles, but today CV axles are also common in rear-wheel drive vehicles
Why Should You Have CV Axle Inspection Services Performed at County Tire Center, Inc?
Early detection of potential issues can prevent costly repairs on your CV axle. Signs of CV axle problems include difficulty turning, resistance from tires during maneuvers, and noticeable noise like squeaking that escalates with speed. Vibrations increasing with speed and vibrating floorboards are also indicators that prompt inspection by our service team.
During a CV axle inspection, our focus extends beyond the axle itself to encompass checking CV joints and CV boots. Since these components work together as a single unit, ensuring their proper function is crucial for CV axle maintenance. Our thorough inspection aims to identify issues early, reducing the likelihood of major repairs or replacements.
