Axle Repair Shop in Buchanan, MI
Axles play a critical role in your truck's ability to operate safely and efficiently. When they start to wear out or fail, you’ll feel it—whether through vibration, odd noises, or alignment issues. Our team at Buchanan Diesel knows how to handle axle shaft problems, repair or replace wheel bearings, and diagnose symptoms like axle noise or axle vibration before they lead to bigger breakdowns.
Some common signs your axle might be in trouble include:
- Clicking or clunking noises when turning
- Leaking axle seal fluid
- Excessive vibration at low speeds
- Uneven tire wear
- Drivetrain binding during turns
We use thorough axle inspection methods to uncover the root cause—whether it's in your differential, a failed U-joint, or another driveline component. If a full axle replacement is required, we handle that too, including fluid service and alignment correction. Our technicians always verify axle alignment after service to help reduce tire wear and vibration.

How Do I Check My Axle?
Checking your axle involves inspecting for visible damage, listening for abnormal noises during turns, and observing for vibration while driving. Leaking grease near the wheels may indicate a failing seal. If you're unsure or notice these symptoms, it's best to get a professional inspection before more costly issues develop.
Can a Broken Axle Damage a Transmission?
Yes, a broken axle can cause transmission damage over time. When one axle isn’t rotating correctly, it places uneven stress on the internal transmission gears and bearings. This misalignment and stress can lead to accelerated wear and possible internal failure if left unaddressed.
