Chevrolet Cobalt Axle Shaft
Chevrolet Cobalt vehicles' Axle Shaft is a critical assembly that connects the differential to the drive wheels and enables power output control to the wheels so as to achieve independent rotation that would improve tractions during cornering. These steel shafts come in different shaping forms where we have; solid axles which are common in trucks and older rear-wheel drive factories and halfshafts for cars with independent suspension system facilities. Axles contain the differential and axle shafts and halfshafts have splined shaf and CV joints which are attached to the wheel hub. Both types can over time be subjected to wear and tear and therefore result in noise, vibration and in extreme cases loss of lubricant. Axle shafts also help in load bearing of vehicle weight, transmitting the driving torque and to manage the wheel eccentricity in Chevrolet Cobalt cars.
Each OEM Chevrolet Cobalt Axle Shaft we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
Chevrolet Cobalt Axle Shaft Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to remove and install the rear axle shaft on Chevrolet Cobalt?A:To remove the rear axle assembly, start by loosening the rear wheel lug nuts and raising the rear of the vehicle on jackstands. Remove the rear wheels and disconnect the brake pipes from the hoses at the trailing arms, plugging the fittings to prevent dirt or fluid loss. If applicable, disconnect the ABS electrical connectors at the rear axle. Release the ends of the parking brake cables from the rear brakes and remove the Coil Springs. Support the rear axle with floor jacks and remove the mounting bolts securing the axle bushing brackets to the body. Carefully lower the rear axle assembly to the floor and inspect the trailing arm pivot bushings. To install the rear axle assembly, raise it to approximate ride height before tightening the through-bolts (if removed for bushing replacement). Align the axle bushing brackets to the body by inserting a 12 mm pin in the frontmost bolt hole on each side, then tighten the bolts. Ensure all fasteners are tightened to the proper torque specifications, bleed the brake system, and tighten the wheel lug nuts. Finally, have the rear wheel alignment checked and adjusted if necessary.
