What
We Build
All Dynatrac axle assemblies are built from the
finest materials and components available, with quality-control
checks at 115 points. Hardware is US-sourced Grade 8,
with thread locker used on all housing fasteners. Gears
are genuine Dana/Spicer or Precision Gear. Dynatrac axle
tubes, housings and knuckles are machined to ultra-precise
tolerances joined on a special 100-ton press, and heliarc
welded for superior strength and longevity. All housings
are deburred by hand, painted inside and out, given a
smooth finish from housing to axle (for oil flow) and
housing bores are fully blueprinted. When a customer
sends us an axle to be modified, complete tubes are replaced,
with no chop, sleeve or butt welding.
Questions you should
ask your axle builder:
Question:
Is there a warranty in case I have a problem?
Dynatrac’s
Answer:
Dynatrac provides a 12 month unlimited mileage
written warranty on the entire axle assembly. If you
can break
it, we will fix it.
Question:
What quality control procedures do you use?
Dynatrac’s
Answer:
Dynatrac uses a formal 115 point quality assured
manufacturing process. It consists of a minimum of 115
items that are
inspected as the axle is manufactured. Furthermore each
of the 115 items are inspected by at least 2, if not
3, Dynatrac team members.
Question:
Do you use surplus or used parts?
Dynatrac’s Answer:
Dynatrac was the first and is
still the only after market company that builds complete
assemblies made from all
new materials and components
Question:
What size axle shafts do you recommend?
Dynatrac’s
Answer:
All Dynatrac 60 assemblies are equipped with new
forged alloy steel 1.5 inch, 35 spline axle shafts, much
larger
than comparable Ford or GM corporate axles. The strength
and resilient ductility of our shafts have proven to
be unsurpassed by any other 30, 31, 33 or 35 spline shafts.
We feel that the physical size of the shaft is the primary
determining factor of its ultimate strength.
Question:
How do lifting or other modifications to my
truck affect wheel alignment and drive line angles?
Dynatrac’s
Answer:
All Dynatrac axles are custom built specifically
for the customer's truck. We will set wheel alignment,
including
castor, camber and S.A.I. to the best possible position
for correct handling. Pinion angles will be set at the
optimum position to match your vehicle's drive line and
performance needs. Dynatrac's accuracy for front housing
geometry exceeds factory standards. If you do not know
exactly what you need, we can make recommendations based
on our considerable experience.
Question:
Do you manufacture your own components?
Dynatrac’s
Answer:
Dynatrac manufactures its own specially designed
housings, knuckles, spindles, housing ends, wheel hubs,
brake mounting
brackets, spring and suspension mounts, axle retainers,
axle shafts and tube assemblies. This is why Dynatrac
can offer such a wide variety of axle applications and
well-engineered factory fit and function. All castings
are 100% made in the U.S.A.
Question:
What method do you use to construct your axles?
Dynatrac’s
Answer:
Dynatrac individually machines each component
(housing, tubes, housing ends, etc.) for concentricity,
alignment
and precise fit. The individual parts are then press
fit in a specialized 100-ton press that also measures
the proper fit of the housing. Dynatrac's exclusive unitized
housing is capable of fully supporting the vehicle before
it is final welded. Since there is no sleeve or butt
welding, Dynatrac axles permit unobstructed oil flow
to the outer axle and wheel hub bearings. We do not hammer,
heat, torch, beat, floor-jack, bang on the floor, twist
or slip fit our housings.
Question:
What brake packages do you offer?
Dynatrac’s Answer:
Dynatrac recommends disc brake
assemblies featuring vented rotors for superior heat
dissipation. Dynatrac
supports over 40 variations of disc and drum brake options
in all popular wheel patterns and braking capacity requirements.
Our brake assemblies use standard components, so service
parts can be purchased anywhere.
Question:
What wheel mounting patterns can your axles
handle?
Dynatrac’s Answer:
Dynatrac axles are available
in all popular wheel patterns including, but not limited
to: 5 on 4.5 (e.g. Jeep, Chrysler);
5 on 4.75 (GM); 5 on 5.0 (GM); 5 on 5.5 (e.g. Ford, Jeep),
5 on 6.5 (Landrover), 6 on 5.5 (e.g. GM, Toyota); 8 on
6.5 (e.g. Ford, GM, Chrysler), and 8 on 170 mm (Ford
Super Duty).
Question:
Do you have semi-floating and full-floating
axles?
Dynatrac’s Answer:
We offer both full- and semi-floating
axles depending upon your particular need. We also support
dual rear
wheel configurations.
