All About 1999 Dodge Viper Drivetrain Service

Your Viper’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It’s one of your Viper’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1999 Dodge Viper, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Dodge's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

What Are Dodge Viper Drivetrain Repairs

You don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are all different. You want to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 1999 Dodge Viper drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Dodge Viper may need driveshaft attention if you feel resistance when turning, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. So much depends on the climate and your driving style. Your best bet is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice a problem with how your Dodge Viper drives.

How much does it cost to fix your 1999 Dodge Viper drivetrain? Some smaller differential fixes, like gasket or seal replacement, are usually pretty affordable. But bigger repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, require more labor and can therefore be more expensive.
