Product Details

Built for driveline service on the Oldsmobile Alero and Pontiac Grand Am, this Cardone CV axle assembly is designed around common failure points found in original axles. Cardone’s engineering approach focuses on reducing boot cracking, grease loss, vibration, and seal wear by using verified straight shafts, durable boot construction, and controlled sealing surfaces. Part number 66-1337 is a direct-fit replacement for front right applications listed in the fitment data and is supplied new with an instruction sheet.

This part cross-references Oldsmobile 26077124 and Pontiac 26077124 for the same application.

Common Problems This Axle Can Address

• Clicking or snapping noises during hard turns
• Grease on the chassis or suspension from a ruptured outer boot
• Front-end vibration caused by axle runout or shaft imbalance
• ABS warning light issues related to a damaged sensor ring or axle-side signal problem
• Thumping or driveline vibration during acceleration

Installation Notes

• Do not let the CV axle hang unsupported during service; support the shaft to avoid inner joint damage.
• Use a torque wrench on the retaining nut and tighten to the vehicle manufacturer’s specification.
• Do not reuse a prevailing-torque lock nut; replace it with the supplied new nut.
• Install new transaxle seals when replacing CV drive axle assemblies to help prevent leaks.
• Inspect the ABS sensor, wiring, and ring during installation to avoid speed signal faults.
