Installation Notes and Tips
When installing the Cardone 60-1291 CV Axle Assembly, avoid letting the axle shafts hang unsupported to prevent joint damage. Use a torque wrench rather than an impact wrench to tighten the retaining nut, and replace the axle nut with a new one as prevailing torque lock nuts should not be reused. Always install new transmission seals when replacing CV axles to maintain proper sealing and prevent leaks.
