An axle nut socket is a tool that is used to remove and install the nuts that secure the axle to the vehicle. This tool is necessary when performing any type of maintenance or repair on the axle assembly.
To remove an axle, first remove the wheels and then the brake drums. Next, disconnect the shocks and springs and then remove the U-bolts that hold the axle in place. Finally, slide the axle out from under the vehicle.
CV axles are an important part of a car's suspension system, and they should be replaced in pairs to ensure optimal performance. CV axles are responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels, and they are subject to a lot of wear and tear. Over time, CV axles can become damaged and worn, which can lead to a loss of power and efficiency. Replacing CV axles in pairs will help to ensure that both axles are in good condition and will help to prevent any issues with power transfer.
An axle is a shaft on which a wheel or pair of wheels rotates. There are several types of axles, including: 1. A live axle is a shaft that transmits power to the wheels while also supporting the weight of the vehicle. 2. A dead axle does not transmit power but simply supports the weight of the vehicle. 3. An independent axle is not rigidly attached to the frame of the vehicle and can move independently of the other wheels. 4. A trailing axle is an axle that is not powered and trails behind the other

My expectations were exceeded by the quality and the excellent pricing. I wasn't sure what to expect in terms of quality and fit/finish given the price of $10 sent via Prime (Sept. '18). I received a great surprise. The socket was substantial, well-cast, and finished nicely but not flawlessly. I mean, it only cost $9.99. For the 1979 Fiat X1/9 engine, I needed a 38mm 1/2" drive socket to remove a gear nut. I searched locally but was unable to find a nice 1/2" drive, 38mm socket for about $20. I searched Amazon because I didn't immediately need the socket and discovered the ABN Axle Nut Socket. As I've come to expect over the past eight years with Amazon Prime, I bought the socket, and it arrived in only two days. My 39-year-old Italian 4-cylinder engine with 69k miles was recalcitrant 38mm gear nut that needed to be removed, and the socket did a great job of it. I used the 1/2" Ingersoll-Rand impact cannon instead of using a manual socket driver or breaker bar to try the socket. The nut was quickly destroyed by this pair, and the socket seemed unaffected. My use-case is rather limited because I will only use the socket to remove and then replace the 38mm gear nut. After a rather tough initial use, it doesn't appear to be damaged. Since this is only $9.99, it seems like a good alternative as long as you are not an expert mechanic or someone who utilizes 38mm sockets continuously.

This is the instrument Kawasaki ought to have stocked in its toolbox. I can remove the front axle from my Kawasaki Versys 1000, among many other bikes, using this tool. It now resides in my toolbox. It has also shown to be highly durable. Evidently, the impact wrench's torque setting was "MAX" the last time a tyre was placed on my bike. The axle had to be broken loose with a 3 foot breaker bar and a mallet, and this tool handled the abuse with no problems. I'm happy I bought it and would do it once more.

Correctly installs the seal onto the axle shaft and into the wheel knuckle
Works on 2006 to current Ford F-250 F-350 4X4s having the vacuum-operated front axle
Prevents front hub vacuum leaks that would cause the 4WD to not engage
$234
To make sure the seal is put properly (and undamaged), both onto the axle and into the spindle, this device worked flawlessly and was well worth the money. It arrives protected from damage during shipping by a sizable styrofoam cage, which also serves as the ideal container for long-term storage. It also comes with oil to prevent corrosion, which I removed with brake cleaner so I could use it without it slipping out of my hand. However, because I'm not sure when I'll use it again, I gently oiled it up again for storage. Although I just purchased this to put a single seal on a single truck and am unsure of when I will use it again, the time and hassle it saved made it absolutely worth every penny.

Un-Be-Lievable! My 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee needed a new drivers side half-axle for the second time because the car was elevated a few inches and the additional angle the shaft was at did not seem to be good for it.After using a slide hammer and a lot of profanity the first time I tried to replace it, I finally gave up and took it to the dealer to have the restored Chrysler half-axle I had purchased there two days before installed. Fast forward to three days ago, when I had to replace it once more. When I disassembled the hub and attempted to insert the new one, it proved to be impossible. It remained in place despite repeated attempts to pry, slide hammer, and pop it out using a makeshift 2x4/cable device.Here on Amazon, I purchased both this axle popper and a larger slide hammer. I crept underneath the car when it arrived at around 6:30 p.m. I slid it into position (which, fortunately, it fit perfectly), then struck it many times with the palm of my hand. It emerged immediately! The best $25 I've ever spent, I believe. The BFSH will be returned to you tomorrow.

For my 2015 Harley Street Glide Special, I ordered this. If you don't have the necessary tools, changing the rear tires and tightening the belt can be challenging—especially getting the cone nut on the right side of the axle torqued to 100 ft lbs without causing the nut on the left side of the axle to revolve. Although I just received it a few days ago and haven't used it yet, I did test fit it on the left side and it did fit.PROS: Nicely padded grip; strong, thick steel construction; length effectively increases force; wrench has ratchet-accepting 3/8" cutout in it. I don't have to remove my left muffler to use the wrench on the left side (Rinehart Racing 4-inch). To use this wrench or any other tool on the right side cone nut, I must first remove the right side muffler.CONS: The 36 mm-wide wrench aperture is a tad floppy on the left side. I haven't tested it on the right side because I haven't yet taken off my saddlebags, which I would have to do. I'll let you know that the 36 mm socket I use to torque the rear axle is exactly the appropriate size to fit the right side nut (Auto Zone). I also have the Harley wrench part #94695-08, which is loose and 36 mm-long. I bought this wrench to aid with the rear axle torque down when working alone because you have to be VERY careful. It will work, but the loose fit can lead to slippage, and those delicate Harley parts will get scratched by the wrench. A 35 mm lens seems to fit more snugly, but I haven't tried that. The rear axle nuts are actually 1-3/8, I think. With the exception of the front forks, which are Showa (Japanese) and metric, Harley-Davidson motorcycles are constructed using inch units (SAE).Overall, a good product under $20 that actually works. In order to get a better fit, I'm going to get a 1-3/8" box end wrench now.

A excellent kit for the DIY types that won't use this frequently at a great price. It worked quickly when I used it to replace the races and seals on the bearings in my front wheels. It went a lot smoother than when the seals were applied using the old races, a hammer, and wood. Don't go crazy with a huge sledge on it either; the metal is a touch soft. I only gave 4 instead of 5 stars since the metal is soft. If you're a pro and frequently require one of these, invest a little extra money on a higher-quality set.
An axle is a central shaft to which the wheels of a vehicle are attached. It also provides support for the vehicle's suspension and bearings. The three main parts of an axle are the shaft, the housing, and the bearings.
An axle assembly is a structural component of a vehicle that connects the wheels to the rest of the vehicle. The assembly typically consists of an axle shaft, bearings, and a housing. The axle shaft transmits torque from the vehicle's powertrain to the wheels. The bearings support the axle shaft and allow it to rotate. The housing encloses the bearings and axle shaft and keeps them in alignment.
The axle shaft is the long metal rod that connects the wheels to the gears in the car. It is also known as the drive shaft.
A spindle nut socket is a socket that is used to remove and install the spindle nut on a vehicle. The socket is typically a 3/4" or 1" socket.
The spindle nut is a large, hexagonal nut that is screwed onto the end of the spindle. It is used to secure the spindle in place and keep it from turning. The size of the spindle nut varies depending on the size of the spindle, but it is typically quite large.
The axle nut is a standard size nut that fits most sockets. However, if you are unsure about the size of the socket that you need, you can always ask the salesperson at the store.
