Product Details

Cardone’s CV axle assembly line is engineered from testing and failure analysis of original CV components. The design focuses on common wear points such as boot cracking, seal life, and shaft runout, helping restore proper driveline operation on the vehicle. This part cross-references Saturn 22710150 and 22711827 for the same application. It is a direct replacement choice for 2005-2006 Chevrolet Equinox front left, 2006 Pontiac Torrent front left, and 2002-2003 Saturn Vue front left or 2003 Saturn Vue front right service.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Clicking or snapping noises during turns
• Grease leakage around a torn CV boot
• Vibration caused by axle runout or shaft imbalance
• ABS warning light after axle replacement if the sensor ring is damaged or missing
• Thumping or driveline vibration under acceleration

Installation Notes

Fits 2005-2006 Chevrolet Equinox, front left; 2006 Pontiac Torrent, front left; 2002-2003 Saturn Vue, front left; and 2003 Saturn Vue, front right. Do not let the axle hang unsupported during service, as this can damage the inner joint. Use a torque wrench on the retaining nut and follow the manufacturer’s torque specification; do not reuse a prevailing-torque lock nut. Replace transaxle seals when servicing the axle to help prevent leaks.

Quality Assurance

Each shaft is individually checked for straightness and runout to help deliver consistent operation at speed. Cardone’s CV axle engineering process is based on diagnosing why original units fail, then applying design changes to reduce repeat failure in service.
