Product Details and Specifications
This Cardone CV Axle Assembly (part number 60-2058) features a self-locking axle nut designed to maintain secure attachment without the need for a prevailing torque lock nut, which should never be reused.

Both input and output shafts utilize spline connections for a secure and accurate fit. Note that this assembly does not include an ABS ring, so it is intended for vehicles without ABS sensor requirements.
Common Applications and Problem Resolution
- Eliminates front-end grinding noises caused by worn or damaged CV joints

Installation Notes and Tips
When installing the Cardone CV Axle Assembly 60-2058, avoid letting the CV drive axles hang unsupported to prevent joint damage. Use a torque wrench rather than an impact wrench to tighten the self-locking axle nut, as impact tools can damage the nut and compromise safety. Always replace transmission seals when installing new axle assemblies to maintain proper sealing. Follow the included instruction sheet carefully for best results.
