Drive axles on modern heavy vehicles are not particularly maintenance-intensive. In fact, the drive axles on most road-going trucks will last the life of the vehicle with only occasional periodic maintenance. Drive axles on tippers and other vehicles used in harsh service may require a bit more attention, but advances in transmission technology and lubrication quality have both served to extend the life of this essential component. It's a different story in the bus industry though, where the high capital cost of vehicles and restricted export markets tend to extend vehicle life with the first user way beyond the point where major components require overhaul or replacement. |
