Full Floating Axle Setup - How It Works

An overview of full floating axle setups. This video is aimed at my 1st year students attending Brakes class. Enjoy.

Very Good .Simple. Well done.

Great video. I’ve never heard the term “ floating axle” until recently. Ironically, I’ve changed bearings and seals on a floating axle for 20yrs. I drive and repair semi trucks 🤦‍♂️ 😂

About to do all the wheel bearings on my 1985 F-250 with a Dana 61 Full Float. Best video I've seen about how these axles work. Thank you, much appreciated!!

You're very welcome. Good luck with the bearing replacement. Make sure you change the races out as well and set the preload correctly.

very cool model. It may be good to show a quick whiteboard drawing of just a semi and full floating axle set up and where the suspension all connects. Being a bit of a newbie on all this, I can’t quite picture at all, but I’ll look up some other information. i’m just not sure if it has anything to do with the suspension at all or just the transmission of the torque/power.

Great video and design. I am a mechanical engineering student and this assembly would be perfect for my thesis. Would it be possible to get the CAD files to 3D print this assembly?

[@TimmaethBoy]

Thanks Alexis. At this time, unfortunately I'm not releasing the CAD files. I may do so sometime in the future.

Is there a way to get this model? I co-own an auto parts store and would like to use it for training purposes thanks......Jason

[@TimmaethBoy]

At this time, no. I may release the files sometime in the future.
