Product Details and Specifications

This CV axle assembly features a spline connection style on both the input and output shafts, providing a secure and accurate fit. The self-locking axle nut design eliminates the need for a prevailing torque lock nut, which should never be reused. With a compressed length of 30.25 inches, this axle assembly is engineered to match factory dimensions. Note that this assembly does not include an ABS ring, so it is compatible with vehicles that do not require this component.

Common Applications and Problem Resolution

• Eliminates front-end grinding noises caused by worn or damaged CV joints
• Resolves wheel wobble during turns due to faulty axle components
• Fixes clicking sounds when accelerating or turning sharply
• Addresses vibrations and thumping felt during acceleration
• Replaces ruptured or torn CV axle boots to prevent further drivetrain damage

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Cardone 60-1403 CV Axle Assembly, avoid letting the axle shafts hang unsupported to prevent joint damage. Use a torque wrench to tighten the self-locking axle nut to manufacturer specifications; do not use an impact wrench or hammer on the retaining nut. Always replace axle seals and related hardware during installation to ensure proper sealing and function.

Each Cardone CV Axle Assembly is remanufactured and inspected for run-out to minimize vibrations and ensure smooth operation. The shafts are balanced at the factory to maintain driveline integrity.
