Product Details

Cardone remanufactures CV drive axles with a focus on fit, seal integrity, and joint durability. The boot-to-housing seal is formed with pneumatic clamping equipment, helping create a water-tight connection that resists contamination. The internal geometry is maintained to support proper grease movement through the joint, while each shaft is checked for straightness to help deliver smooth performance at speed. This part cross-references Chevrolet and Saturn OE numbers 21991245 and 22717558 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Clicking or snapping noises during turns
• Grease leakage around the axle boot
• Vibration during acceleration or at road speed
• Grinding from a worn outer CV joint
• ABS warning light caused by damaged sensor components during axle service

Installation Notes and Tips

• Do not let the CV axle hang unsupported during service.
• Use a torque wrench for the retaining nut and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s specifications.
• Do not reuse a prevailing-torque lock nut; install a new nut during service.
• Replace transaxle seals when installing CV drive axle assemblies to help prevent leaks.
• If the hub stub shaft is seized, use the proper removal method to avoid damage to the hub assembly.

Quality Assurance

Cardone remanufacturing uses inspected shafts, controlled grinding processes, and high-temperature grease to support long service life. The process also reduces energy and raw material use compared with manufacturing a new part, while maintaining OE-style fit and performance for applications such as the Saturn Vue, Chevrolet Equinox, and Pontiac Torrent. Part number 60-1403 is built to meet the listed fitment requirements for rear left installation.
