Differential & Axle Service in Easton
Differential & Axle Service Near Easton, Norton, & Mansfield
Differentials and axles are the unsung heroes of a vehicle’s drivetrain. Axles allow power to be sent to the wheels, while differential for each wheel to rotate independently at different speeds. This ability is essential for a comfortable and controllable driving experience.
When taking a turn, the outside wheels will have to travel a slightly further distance to complete the corner. You can think of it similarly to how an Olympic track runner starting on the outside lanes of the track must travel a further distance around each of the corners, as the radius increases towards the outside of the circle. If wheels are unable to rotate independently, the difference in corner radius will cause a lack of traction and potentially a loss of control. The differential consists of a complex set of spider and planetary gears, which allow for the varying speeds between wheels.
Over time, these components can wear or fail, preventing the differential from operating properly. Staying on top of regular differential fluid changes, using the proper fluid for your specific vehicle, is crucial for performance and longevity.
