What is the description and diagnosis of front axle shaft problems on 2003 through 2009 Toyota 4Runner?

The rear axle assembly of a vehicle is a hypoid, semi-floating type with a differential that allows the outer rear tire to turn more quickly than the inner tire when going around a corner. The axle shafts are splined to the differential side gears, and the differential pinion gears roll around the slower side gear, driving the outer side gear more quickly. Some models use a locking limited-slip rear axle that allows for normal operation until one wheel loses traction. On 4WD models, a fully independent front axle assembly is used, consisting of a differential and a pair of drive axles with inner and outer constant velocity (CV) joints. When diagnosing axle problems, it's important to check other possible causes before assuming the axle is the problem. Common noises associated with axle diagnosis procedures include road noise, tire noise, and engine and transmission noise, which can be deceiving and travel along the driveline. Overhauling the differential requires special tools and isn't cost-effective for a do-it-yourselfer.

What is the description and function of the rear axle shaft on 2005 through 2009 Toyota Tacoma?

The rear axle assembly is a hypoid, semi-floating type, the outer rear wheel of turns more fast as compared to the inner wheel when it is in cornering, with axleshafts splined to the side gears of differential. Some models feature an electronic locking rear differential, which operates in two modes: normal and locked and the latter engages when when there is mud or deep snow causing one wheel to spin. On the 4WD models, there will be a fully floating front axle assembly, best described as a differential and drive axles contain constant velocity joints. In diagnosing an axle problem, it is mandatory to look for other possible origins of noise since road noise, tire noise, and engine/transmission noises could be mistaken for axle noise. Hearing road noise does not vary with the power of the vehicle while tire noise is due to the state of the tires. Another method of solving this problem is to identify the main components that make the engine and the gearbox noisy; the tachometer is used to track the engine speed, and further tests are conducted with the car in Neutral. Changing the differential demands specific tools, thus, it may not be changed by the owner of the vehicle; details of removing the axels haft, replacing the oil seal, and replacing the bearings are provided, while other complicated procedures should be done by a mechanic.

Toyota Axle Shaft injects engine twist onto wheel rotation so that the car continues to move without causing a commotion. Toyota has become big by being small starting in 1937 but expanding globally by following the path of lean production that reduces wasteful motion, empowers workers with the authority to halt a line and fix the flaw before it leaves the factory, so that drivers get cars that run long, use little fuel, and shrug off uneven roads; and hybrids that stretch each gallon and sprint over traffic, even when more costly vehicles are in the market. That trust shows when millions of people choose the brand each year no matter the weather, on all money, across all models, and all continents. Within each of these independent suspensions, a Toyota drive system transmits torque to the wheels via an Axle Shaft crafted of high-strength steel, including provision of curb weight, rotation at highway speeds, and elasticity to the on and off extremities of potholes. When seals remain intact, the Toyota lubricated Axle Shaft will be smooth and silent; however, when the tube is dented by rocks or the tube is cut by grit, the part will begin engaging with sound in a scratching, vibrating fashion, spraying grease onto the floor, and the driver will know that alignment and traction will soon suffer. Replace it with a new Toyota rated Axle Shaft and steering is once more direct, acceleration no longer leaps, and the chassis becomes planted on the ground when barging around corners or changing lanes on the asphalt. Do not mind a clicking Axle Shaft; the joint will freeze or break without any mercy.
