So I've been searching around and I haven't been able to find any direct answer besides that the axles break, or seal to the engine. In trying to replace these, I can't seem to find where or how to learn more about the axles and what causes them to break.
I've read everything from "Wheel Hop" to suspension tuning being wrong.
But what exactly is wheel hop? Like if I hit an apex and the wheel bumps up and down? Or like hitting a speed bump a bit hard?
I currently have a seized Axle to my front passenger side and will be looking to replace it but I also see that the new 2g awd axles don't have ABS? meaning my ABS wont work anymore? When my speeds are over 75 mph my steering wheel vibrates. and the higher up the more aggressive it gets.
I do heavy duty daily driving. Like 2 notches below auto x, but i'm not gentle on the car either. Launch at maybe 2k to 3k. shift at 5 to 6k and alot of taking turns at higher speeds than normal (it throws my body around).
What causes the breaks? Explain them please? And Will removing my ABS make handling the car more difficult at times where I brake hard? How can I remove a seized Axle?
And I was thinking about doing a spider differential on my rears because I've also heard that too much acceleration out of a turn can wreck an axle. Whats the best LSD set up for aggressive daily driving? I just want a flawless vehicle on the streets. Eventually I'll go into auto x (After i get a tre stage 4 installed [would it be too much for DD as well? ] and a better clutch + launch control device) and road racing.. but for now I want to have fun. Any help is appreciated Thank you!
