Signs Your Truck’s Axles Need Repair

Axles are critical components of any heavy-duty truck, and it's important to be aware of the signs that your axles may be in need of repair. Some of the common symptoms of axle problems include:

Unusual Noises

Unusual noises from heavy-duty truck axles could indicate problems such as worn-out or damaged bearings and U-joints. Common noises associated with axle problems include grinding sounds caused by worn-out bearings, clicking or popping sounds caused by damaged U-joints, and clunking sounds caused by damaged bearings and U-joints. If any of these noises are heard, it's important to have the truck inspected by a qualified technician to prevent further damage and costly repairs.

Vibration

Vibration is one of the key symptoms of axle problems in heavy-duty trucks. If you notice any vibration in the steering wheel, floorboard, or seats, it could indicate a problem with the driveshaft. The driveshaft is responsible for transferring power from the transmission to the axles, and it must be properly balanced to ensure smooth operation. Over time, the driveshaft can become worn out or unbalanced, which can cause vibrations that can be felt throughout the vehicle.

In addition to worn-out or unbalanced driveshafts, other potential causes of vibration in heavy-duty trucks include worn-out or damaged suspension components, tires that are out of balance or out of alignment, and damaged or worn-out wheel bearings. It's important to have the truck inspected by a qualified technician to identify the root cause of the vibration and perform any necessary repairs or replacements.

Difficulty Turning

Difficulty turning your heavy-duty truck may be a sign of axle problems caused by worn-out or damaged bearings and U-joints, which can make the truck pull to one side, causing turning to be difficult. Other potential causes of difficulty turning include worn-out steering components, damaged power steering systems, and issues with the suspension system. To prevent further damage and ensure safety, have your truck inspected by a qualified technician for expert repair services.

Uneven Tire Wear

Uneven tire wear in heavy-duty trucks is a common sign of axle problems caused by worn-out or damaged bearings. This can be dangerous and costly as it significantly reduces the lifespan of your tires and increases the risk of blowouts and other tire-related issues. Other potential causes of uneven tire wear include misaligned or unbalanced wheels, suspension issues, and improper tire inflation. To prevent further damage and ensure safety, have your heavy-duty truck inspected by a qualified technician who can identify the root cause of the problem and provide expert repair services using advanced diagnostic tools.

Oil Leaks

Oil leaks around the axles are a common sign of axle problems in heavy-duty trucks. The axle assembly is filled with oil that lubricates the gears, bearings, and other moving parts. If the seals that keep the oil contained within the axle assembly become worn out or damaged, oil can leak out and cause damage to other components.

Leaking oil can also compromise the safety of your heavy-duty truck. If the oil leak is severe, it can lead to a loss of lubrication in the axle assembly, causing damage to the gears and bearings, which can ultimately result in axle failure. Axle failure can be dangerous and can result in a loss of control of the vehicle, leading to accidents and injuries.

FleetGo is nothing short of amazing.  They are kind and reasonable. They take every effort to put themselves in the shoes of a small business owner to do what they can to help.

Bradly Helm

I have used FleetGo for several years now and I recommend them to anyone with a heavy duty truck. They are prompt, fair pricing and overall make every effort to get our trucks finished so we can get back on the road as fast as possible. This morning one of our trucks had a belt break, they were on site within an hour and had it fixed shortly after that. Cant thank them enough!

Craig Macarthur

Helped one of my drivers out in a jam on short notice the week before Christmas and got him rolling in less than 2 hours.

Very good service.  Pricing on par with industry average.

Thomas Chwilkowski

We had been having a stumbling issue with our 2007 international 7400 for a year and a half, had it at dealer and performed many tests to resolve situation but to no avail,

Called Aaron at Fleetgo after a reputable company referred him and had issue solved over the Phone in less than 20 minutes of his call. Give him a try👍👍👍👍👍
