CV Axle Replacement
CV axles were once primarily used on front-wheel drive vehicles. Today, CV axles are common on both front-wheel and rear-wheel drive vehicles. The CV axle assembly—the axle shaft, CV joints, and CV boots—is designed to flexibly deliver power to the wheels for a seamless transfer of torque. Located between the drive wheels, the CV axle, along with the suspension system, compensates for irregularities in the road and transmits torque to the wheels while keeping them turning at a constant velocity.
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. A fully functional CV axle assembly provides your vehicle with safety and stability while supporting passenger comfort through various speeds and driving conditions.
Why Should You Have CV Axle Replacement Services Performed at County Tire Center, Inc?
Over time, the CV axle assembly wears out due to its flexibility and exposure to harsh conditions. Symptoms of a failing CV axle include hesitation or resistance while turning, as well as sudden popping noises during turns, indicating the need for replacement.
It's important to note that these signs can sometimes indicate other issues like wheel misalignment or uneven tire wear.
Regular maintenance and timely replacement of components in the CV axle assembly ensure its proper function and help prevent the need for complete axle replacements. Driving with a damaged CV axle can exacerbate other vehicle components, leading to more costly repairs in the future. Contact us at the first sign of trouble for prompt CV axle replacement service.
