Product Details and Specifications
This CV axle assembly features spline-style connections on both the input and output shafts, ensuring a secure and precise fit with the vehicle’s drivetrain.

Installation Notes and Tips
When installing the Cardone 60-2137 CV Axle Assembly, avoid letting the axle shafts hang unsupported to prevent joint damage.

Always replace transmission seals during axle installation to prevent leaks. Follow the included instruction sheet carefully for proper fitment and assembly.
