Front and rear axle adjustment

 

The front and rear axles of the car perceive the vertical, longitudinal and transverse forces acting between the supporting surface and the frame or the car body. The rear axle is usually driven, and the front axle is steered. Vertical forces are transmitted by the elastic elements of the suspension, and longitudinal and transverse - both the suspension and special rods.


Front axle malfunctions

 Violation of the correct camber angle,

 The appearance of "wobbling" of the front wheels when driving and uneven tire wear

 The car is poorly "holding" the road

 Lubricant leakage through the rubber-felt gland of the rotary pin

 Increased tire wear due to improper wheel alignment                                      


Rear axle malfunctions:


 Oil leak through the gear oil seal

 Oiling of brake drums and brake linings of the rear wheels

 Increased rear axle noise

 Rear axle knock, noticeable only when the car is coasting (by inertia)

 Knock on the brake drum

 Knock on the differential

 Cornering noise

 Noise during engine braking
