Rear Axle

The rear axle allows your car’s wheels to rotate freely. Car Parts 4 Less offers low prices on rear axles of all types and sizes.

The rear axle mounts at back of your vehicle. In most cars it is part of the drivetrain, while in others it just supports the weight of the car at the rear. In rear-wheel-drive cars, the rear axle receives torque from the driveshaft via a differential. The differential is a set of gears that allows the axle and driveshaft to work in unison despite sitting at an awkward angle from each other. The rear axle then transfers this torque to the back wheels and propels your car forward. The first sign of a faulty rear axle is a whining sound that becomes more intense as your car speeds up. Excessive vibration and noise from the back wheels also suggest your rear axle may need replacing. Car Parts 4 Less makes it quick, easy and cheap to find the right axle for your car.
