The description of an axle is a central shaft for rotating a gear or a wheel. Where wheeled vehicles are concerned, the axle itself may be connected to the wheels and turn together with them. In this instance, bearings or bushings are provided at the mounting points where the axle is supported. Conversely, the axle could be connected to its surroundings and the wheels could in turn turn around the axle. In this particular case, a bearing or bushing is situated in the hole in the wheel to allow the wheel or gear to rotate around the axle.
With trucks and cars, the term axle in several references is utilized casually. The term usually refers to the shaft itself, a transverse pair of wheels or its housing. The shaft itself revolves together with the wheel. It is normally bolted in fixed relation to it and known as an 'axle' or an 'axle shaft'. It is also true that the housing around it that is normally called a casting is otherwise called an 'axle' or sometimes an 'axle housing.' An even broader definition of the word refers to every transverse pair of wheels, whether they are attached to one another or they are not. Hence, even transverse pairs of wheels inside an independent suspension are generally referred to as 'an axle.'
The axles are an important part in a wheeled motor vehicle. The axle serves so as to transmit driving torque to the wheel in a live-axle suspension system. The position of the wheels is maintained by the axles relative to one another and to the motor vehicle body. In this system the axles should likewise be able to support the weight of the motor vehicle plus any load. In a non-driving axle, like the front beam axle in various two-wheel drive light trucks and vans and in heavy-duty trucks, there would be no shaft. The axle in this condition serves only as a steering part and as suspension. A lot of front wheel drive cars consist of a solid rear beam axle.
There are different kinds of suspension systems where the axles work only to transmit driving torque to the wheels. The angle and position of the wheel hubs is a function of the suspension system. This is often found in the independent suspension seen in nearly all new SUV's, on the front of many light trucks and on nearly all brand new cars. These systems still consist of a differential but it does not have attached axle housing tubes. It can be connected to the vehicle body or frame or also can be integral in a transaxle.
