Chevy Impala Differentials

Your auto’s wheels spin at different speeds. When one wheel begins to loose traction, the opposite wheel also experiences reduction in torque. In the worst case scenario, your Chevy Impala might get stuck with one wheel spinning at ease, while the other wheel with the better traction won’t be able to deliver any torque to move the auto. And that’s where differentials come into play. The vehicle differential is a mechanical assembly of parts designed to split engine torque transferred by means of a driveshaft into two ways, while allowing each separate differential shaft to rotate at a different, variable speed.

Differentials have several purposes, including the final transfer of engine power to the wheels, while acting as the gear reduction mechanism in order to lower the rotational speed of the transmission for the last time. Differentials can be found on all present-day vehicles, which include cars, trucks, SUVs, and so on. With the differential at work, the wheels rotate at the equal speeds. When it comes to driving in sand, snow, or mud, differentials ensure that power keeps on being transferred to the wheels with greater traction. If your car's differential or some of its components need replacement, for instance, a diff output seal has failed and causes noise and oil leaks, or if it's time to change differential oil, we have you covered. We carry a considerable variety of Chevy Impala differentials & components, which are supplied to us by some of the finest manufacturers in the industry.
