This Paper focuses on the problem of the drive-axle failure within a student built All-terrain vehicle, designed and fabricated by team of students racing for participation in BAJA SAE INDIA ATV championships, with the intent to not only solve the failure for the current case study, but, to also derive a universal approach to solution of such problems in any all-terrain vehicle within the world. The approach to solution begins with a definition of the problem and its key parameters. Further, simulation of the failure conditions is performed to identify shortcomings of the failing design. Thereafter, the solution is derived with the support of standard design calculations and an iterative approach. The processes incorporate iterative material selection and re-design. Thereafter, from the various possible solutions, the optimal solution was identified via FEA tools.
