Running gear support

Find HGV axle and suspension expertise for roadside or workshop defects.

Uneven ride height, wheel heat, abnormal movement and suspension warnings can be safety-critical. Do not continue until a competent person has assessed the defect.

When this service may help

  • Vehicle leaning or suspension collapsed
  • Hub heat or bearing noise
  • Broken spring or displaced component
  • Uneven tyre wear or unstable handling

Keep clear of unsupported suspension

Never work beneath an air-suspended vehicle without prescribed supports and isolation. Pressure or component failure can cause sudden movement.

Recovery may need preparation

A seized or damaged axle can require wheel skates, lifting or driveline disconnection. Give the recovery operator clear photos and axle details.

Frequently asked questions

Can an air spring be replaced roadside?

Potentially in a safe location with the correct part and support equipment, but access and collateral damage must be assessed.

Is a hot hub safe to continue on?

Treat unusual heat, smell, smoke or bearing noise as urgent. Stop safely and obtain professional advice.
