Hi motors mania..
We meet again in the community of motors lovers, and on this occasion I would like to review a little about the problems that often occur in street giants, namely trucks.
Trucks are one of the mainstays for land transportation that are used throughout the world, the function of trucks is very useful for humans because they can transport quite a lot of goods from one place to another, even remote areas still rely on trucks as carriers.
Why is the truck suddenly not moving?
On the way, there are usually problems with trucks with a lot of loads, often we break tires, or something else, as happened with this Mitsubishi truck, namely suddenly the gear gear does not function as usual, the gear lever is repeatedly moved by the driver to move forward. or backwards but it doesn't work at all.
One of the causes of things like what we discussed above is caused by a broken rear axle, this is because the load of transportation in large quantities or exceeds the carrying capacity, it could also be due to wear and tear, in this case if the truck is carrying a load it can fall over because of this.
As a result of a broken rear axle, of course, the wheels do not get rotation even if the driver swings the gear lever to go forward or backward, so the vehicle's position will remain silent as if it lost power.
Solution of the above problem?
I think in this problem there is only one solution, namely replacing the rear axle with a new one, because it is very impossible to repair it by welding or connecting it in another way, because it would be fatal if you don't replace it with a new one, you can replace it yourself as usual in order to save costs.
To replace the rear axle, count the number of turns on the iron like the picture above, before you buy it so you don't get it wrong, for the Mitsubishi truck that I repaired it has a total of 18 turns, so this depends on the type of vehicle you are using.
To replace it, remove the broken axle first by unscrewing the bolt on the tire wheel, after that you just insert a new axle, of course, reinstalling the bolts means your work is done, so it will save expenses that you can use for your needs. others, good luck and thank you for visiting and supporting me this time, "greetings from Binjai horas.."
