| Description of the problem | I was driving in loose gravel and i felt an unusually feeling in my rear axel, so i drove the vehicle slowly home never felt it until i arrived to my home and then i parked it. I then called a transmission mechanic and had the vehicle towed to transmission repair shop. The repair shop called and tried to get replacement parts for my rear axle and where unable to. So they had to get a hole new rear axle not just new parts but a completely new rear axle. The new rear axle is completely different from the original, which makes me and the mechanic that owns the repair shop believe that the original rear axle was faulty. Other wise why wouldn't the rear end be the same and be able to get replacement parts for the old rear axle like you can with most vehicles. |
