Question

Three quarter floating type of rear live axle is used in ............... vehicles.

• A. small and medium
• B. heavy
• C. light
• D. passenger

Hint:

Tip: ¾ floating axle → medium load → small and medium vehicles!

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Rear live axles are classified based on how the axle supports the weight and transmits torque.
A three-quarter floating axle partially supports the vehicle’s weight and transmits drive torque to the wheels.
It has better load-carrying capability than a semi-floating axle but less than a full-floating axle.
Because of this balance, three-quarter floating axles are used in small and medium commercial vehicles.
Heavy vehicles generally use full-floating axles for maximum load capacity.
Light or passenger cars usually have semi-floating axles.
Therefore, the correct answer is small and medium.
