Model 200013 drive axel moves to the right to far, causing axel to destroy inside of drive wheel. what causes this condition??

By removing the drive line you may move the car but it will lock up on you at some point,, the rear end, wheel bearing or broken axel will cause more damage, just tear into it and fix the problem before it causes you more trouble.....Hope that helps...

That bolt keeps the axle from moving inward into the hub, may not matter during normal driving but during off road driving when the suspension is stretched it may cause the splines to strip on the axle/

Maybe the part where the Axel and the steering wheel has aquired some stress, causing the steering wheel rod to slide down the wheels Axel making it unable to turn left. All you need to do is slide the steering rod (attached to the steering wheel) into the center of the Axel. I hope this helped :)

2 missing lug nuts, especially if they are side by side, could cause some wobble while driving. I would not recomend driving with missing Lugs. The stress you put on the remaining 3 could end up being to great, and the tire could end up falling off the car while driving.

As far as what damage could be caused by driving with missing lugs goes....


Anyting in the suspension from the ball joints, to the hub & bearings, axel, tie riods, just about anything down there is not suposed to be move or jiggled in the fashion that it is being moved.

Get the new lug nuts on immeadiatly, take it for a drive, and come back and let me know how it feels. Once you have the lugs on and we can eliminate that as a possible reason for the wobble, we can go from there....

Good Luck.....

Im having the same problem with mine. I thinke it's bad control arm bushings . the a frame is shifting and putting front drive axles in a bind.

This is a common problem on 4x4 trucks and jeeps, it is cause by stress building up on the axels, An easy way to relieve the stress is to drive in reverse for a few yards, this relieves the tention that builds up on 4x4s. I know it sounds crazy stress and tention?? it has to do with the ratio on turning radius, the outside wheel has to travel farther than the inside wheel and this causes stress and tention on the axel/front end.also try and not turn so sharp.you will notice that goes away if you dont turn as sharp...

i had the same problem and i ended up changing the rear wheel bearings and axels, look under the car near the rear wheel seals, if they are leaking the axels are going to be worn also and need replacing.

Sounds like the transmission.. If the axel was broke most likely it would still go into gear quite easy.. Bad axel would cause bad shimmy in front end.. Suggestion would be to take to a transmission shop and have checked out..

Make sure you are putting the wheel on the right way. The rim may be off-set. The longer part of the hub should be on the inside.
