are wheel alignment need it after i had change my left axle??

and every what i have to do an alignment??

last question: if i do my wheel alignment today and tomorrow i do my right axle will i need another alignment??

thanks

 

idk wtf you just said but..


tech you should get an alignment after working on suspension componets, which you'll be moving around taking out your axle, however, its probably not needed. I did both of mine and didn't get an alignment and im fine.

Also, i don't know if its really possible or accurate to do it at home.. i have no idea how to.

third you should get one every 30k or so.

You do not have to have the car aligned after changing an axle. It is not necessary.

its only necessary when the car goes to the left or right?? right?

 

or if your wearing down tires from toe and camber being off.

Not necessarily. Some suspension work, such as replacing tie rods or a steering rack, or replacing a strut in certain McPherson strut suspensions, will require an alignment afterwards. Changing axles on a double-wishbone Honda does not require an alignment.

If the car is pulling to one side, and/or the steering wheel is crooked, and/or the tires are wearing unevenly, those are also signs that you need to have the wheels aligned.

 

But in principle just because the steering doesn't pull doesn't off itself mean the toe alignment is correct . But as stated, what you've done won't require an alignment, unless of course you needed one before you did the work.

 

Do all the work first then do the alignment last

okay thanks,
yea i am gonna do that, bcuz i did my LEFT axle bcuz it made a noisy while turning and my car would go to the left while trying to set the steering wheel straight but now no noise, i guess i just need to do the alignment, but i am changing the RIGHT axle too just to have two new axles in there....

If your right axle is original OE Honda and there is nothing wrong with it, and you intend to replace it with a remanufactured unit from some chain auto parts store, then I would highly recommend that you leave it alone.

alright

 

i would still change it when it needs it. you'll have a lifetime warranty on them, and you know that ones going to go out soon too. just wait til it clicks and then change them with OEM ones.

okay now that i change my left axle last two weeks because of a clicking noise, today a different noisy came up while driving straight, will driving in the freeway it feels like the wheels are shaking

 

probably bad bearings in the hub

well ill see whats wrong with it tomorrow

 

did you double check the torque on all the bolts? thats the first step then do a more through inspection of the wheel bearing.

nope we just tighten it

 

as I said check then check your wheel baring not saying you didn't, but you always check the small stuff first.

okay i will check the torque on the bolts
and about the noisy its like a kicking noisy or hitting, my friends says i need an alignment
about the bearing if its bad what would be the problem ??

 

when you got that corner of the car lifted and secure on a jack stand try moving the wheel back and forth and up and down(in and out). if you notice movement try to pinpoint where it is moveing at and that is the part that should be replaced.

ok thanks
and if is not that ?

 

the only time you need an allignment is when

1. you remove / adjust suspension parts directly related to the car's allignment.

2. you hit something hard enough to knock the car out of allignment

3. New tires
