Detailed Description

This Cardone CV axle assembly is engineered for Mitsubishi Mirage front left applications from 1997 through 2001. The remanufacturing process focuses on restoring OE geometry and maintaining proper grease flow through the joint, which helps support consistent driveline performance and vibration-free operation at speed. Cardone 60-3325 is a practical replacement for a worn or noisy axle on the Mirage, especially when the original unit shows boot damage, joint wear, or shaft runout.

Cardone’s CV axle remanufacturing line emphasizes sealed boot retention, accurate joint machining, and straightness verification. This helps preserve smooth articulation during acceleration and turning while supporting long-term service life. This part cross-references Mitsubishi MR232357 for the same application.

What This Part Helps Address

• Clicking or snapping during turns from a worn outer CV joint
• Grease leakage from a ruptured boot
• Front-end vibration caused by axle runout or imbalance
• Grinding or noise from a damaged CV joint
• Axle-related wobble or thump under acceleration

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 1997-2001 Mitsubishi Mirage, front left. Replace the transaxle seals during CV axle service to help prevent leaks. Do not let the axle hang unsupported during removal or installation, as this can damage the inner joint. Use a torque wrench on the retaining nut and follow manufacturer torque specifications; do not use an impact wrench to install the nut. A new prevailing-torque lock nut should be used instead of reusing the old one. If the ABS light is on after installation, inspect the sensor ring, sensor, and nearby wiring for damage.

Quality Assurance

Cardone remanufactures this axle using inspected shafts, controlled boot sealing, and precision-machined joint components to support reliable operation. The process also reduces raw material and energy use compared with producing a new part.
