High Performance Axles

An axle is a central shaft for a rotating wheel or gear. Depending on your 2007 Ford F-150, they may be fixed to the wheels rotating with them, or fixed to the vehicle with the wheels rotating around the axle. Factory axles are not made for the aggressive days on the track, or off-roading. The last thing you want is your axle snapping from high torque on race day, or getting stuck in the trails because extreme off-roading. A High performance Axle is made from tougher material. You can choose from forged steel, heat-treated steel, and chromoly assemblies. Sport Compact Warehouse is your premier source for High Performance Axles. Reach out to one of our experienced representatives today if you have any questions and we will help you make a more informative decision.

Axles are an integral component of most practical wheeled vehicles. In a live-axle suspension system, the axles serve to transmit driving torque to the wheel, as well as to maintain the position of the wheels relative to each other and to the vehicle body. The axles in this system must also bear the weight of the vehicle plus any cargo. A non-driving axle, such as the front beam axle in heavy duty trucks and some two-wheel drive light trucks and vans, will have no shaft, and serves only as a suspension and steering component. Conversely, many front-wheel drive cars have a solid rear beam axle.

In other types of suspension systems, the axles serve only to transmit driving torque to the wheels; the position and angle of the wheel hubs is an independent function of the suspension system. This is typical of the independent suspensions found on most newer cars and SUVs, and on the front of many light trucks. These systems still have differentials, but will not have attached axle housing tubes. They may be attached to the vehicle frame or body, or integral in a transaxle. The axle shafts (usually constant-velocity type) then transmit driving torque to the wheels. Like a full floating axle system, the drive shafts in a front-wheel drive independent suspension system do not support any vehicle weight.
