If you're looking for a solid axle assembly that won't let you down, the Zumbrota Drivetrain Axle Assembly is worth checking out. These aren’t just any rebuilt axles; they’re crafted with a real attention to detail that you'd expect from someone who knows the ins and outs of drivetrains. Each assembly undergoes a thorough inspection to make sure everything's straight and free of cracks or wear. You won't find any shortcuts here.

What sets these axles apart is the meticulous examination of all internal components. We're talking about ring and pinions, internal gears, clutches, and carriers—all of them get the once-over to ensure they meet the high standards you'd want for your ride. Plus, every bearing and seal is replaced, so you can hit the road with confidence knowing that everything is fresh and ready to roll.

Now, let’s talk about the setup. The gears are inspected for optimal tooth contact patterns and rolling torque, which is measured in inch-pounds. This precise setup helps with longevity and keeps things running smoothly. And don’t worry about noise; the correct gear backlash is set to ensure everything lubricates properly, keeping things quiet while you cruise.

The axle tubes? They’re straightened to OEM specs, so you know you’re getting a product that fits just right. Zumbrota employs a unique hydro-blast rinse and sandblasting process to clean both the internal and external parts, bringing everything back to that OEM finish. It’s a level of care that shows they really know what they’re doing.
