Systems and methods for a drive axle. The drive axle system, in one example, includes a displacement sensor coupled to a pinion input flange and configured to generate axial displacement data corresponding to the pinion input flange, where the pinion input flange is directly coupled to an angled pinion gear. The drive axle system further includes a controller configured to determine a torque at the pinion input flange based on the axial displacement data.
