How does Houston Rebuilt Axles repair spindle ends and bent axles in Knoxville?

The team at Houston Rebuilt Axles has the skills and tools to repair axles back to factory specifications.  First, the team tears down the axle to a bare housing and then applies it to a lathe. While the axle housing is on the lathe, the spindle end gets replaced with a replacement spindle built in-house.  The damaged spindle is then cut off and disposed while the replacement is welded on. 

What else does the team at HRA check on the axle?

HRA verifies that the axle is perfectly straight.  If left unchecked, there are risks that the truck will burn up tires, break an axle, or damage the hub seal.  Then, the team will install a new hub, bearing set, rotor, and seals. The center will get a fluff and buff treatment to make sure that it is road-ready.  Finally, the axle is filled with fluid and the housing is painted.  

How much does an axle rebuild cost?

The costs of an axle rebuild varies depending on the amount of damage and wears & tear already existing on the axle. For better assessments on axle rebuilds, customers can contact HRA directly at 832-280-8489 to receive a quick quote, or by email so we can better assess the scope of work on the repair.
