Expert Axle Repair & Replacement Services in Denton TX

Most people keep up with regular maintenance on their brakes and tires because it’s common knowledge that these parts of your vehicle are essential to the smooth, safe functionality of the car. However, another element that greatly affects both safety and comfort of your drive is the axle. At Spenser’s Quality Automotive, our qualified service technicians can help you with axle repair and replacement as readily as any other maintenance need.

Split Axles

While most individuals think of axles as a bar between the two wheels (known as a straight axle), the truth is that most cars employ split axles today, meaning each wheel is attached to a separate shaft. This creates independent suspension for left and right wheels and permits separate rotation and speeds for improved traction and turning. This extends the life of the tires and is known as differential.

Transaxles

On a number of vehicles, the axles are combined with the transmission to create what is known as a transaxle. In a rear-wheel vehicle, this apparatus is also connected to the engine through a drive shaft that turns the drive axle in the back of the car.

Whether you have one of the newer axle systems or a classic car with an older axle, Spenser’s Quality Automotive of Denton can aid you in repairs and replacements for your vehicle.
