Mahindra uses an open-knuckle model 44 type clone front axle with 6-bolt spindles and Disc Brakes. Small 1310 sized axle u-joints with 1-1/16" diameter cups are used to couple the 19 spline inner axle shafts to the 10 spline outer shafts. The front axle mounts over the springs, and a single hydraulic shock absorber is used on each side. Available factory axle ratios were 3.73 in 2018-2019 and 5.38 in 2020 and newer. The differential is a standard open type.
Two serviceable, opposed, and adjustable Timken taper wheel bearings were used in each wheel hub along with a simple inner wheel grease seal. The bearings are lubricated with grease packed into the bearings at the time of assembly. On the outboard end of the hub, a 6 bolt flange is sealed with O-rings and an outer cap. Wheel bearing retention is handled by a 4-piece spindle nut set that includes an inner thrust washer, inner hex spindle nut, bend-over type lock washer and outer hex spindle nut. From the factory, bearing adjustment for hub end-play is done with a spacer and shim set between wheel bearings.
Roxor is the first commercially available 4 wheeled motor vehicle from Mahindra available in the US and Canada. It's roots started very similar to Jeep vehicles in the late 1940's, however the evolution path was much slower and quite a bit different than American produced vehicles.
Today, Roxor has a cross of new and old technology. Front disc brakes, a computerized fuel injection and emission system, and open knuckle front axle design are some of the modern equipment used. On the older side; drum rear brakes, 19 spline inner/10 spline outer axle shafts, and a model 18 clone transfer case coupled with 1310 driveshaft joints are the standard (and only) factory option.
