Cracked inner axle

Featured Replies

Anyone ever have the inner metal

Cylinder on their axle crack?

Edited by JWD06OBXT

Buy a used OEM axle and reboot it.

Lifted off-road rigs break stub shafts and axles. Are you off-roading or clutch dumping a Crawford tuned special?

 

Aftermarket axles have any and every issue known to man.

 

Front or rear?

 

What do you mean by cylinder - the shaft, something inside the joint or the stub shaft?

I think he means the cup or the cage. Either way, some clarification or pics would help. You're right as usual though, AM axles just tend to suck.

 Yup inner cage cracked in three spots. Pretty sure its cause the axle was toast cause when I took it off the car the joint actually locked up and had to force it back into the cup. Got a new to me OEM axle from the the Junk yard and it fit like a glove. Now just waiting for new tie rod ends.
