Detailed Description

This Cardone CV axle assembly is engineered for the front right side of the Chevrolet Cruze and Chevrolet Cruze Limited. The design focuses on the areas that commonly cause CV axle failure, including boot deterioration, contamination, and shaft runout. Cardone verifies shaft straightness and uses precision-machined sealing surfaces after heat treatment to support long seal life and stable operation.

The CV axle assembly includes an ABS ring and a new spindle nut, and the axle nut uses a self-lock style. This makes it a practical choice for Chevrolet Cruze front right CV axle replacement work where maintaining ABS function and driveline smoothness matters. Part number 66-1576 is also a useful reference when matching the correct axle for 2011-2015 Cruze and 2016 Cruze Limited applications.

This part cross-references Chevrolet OE numbers 13334703 and 13367770 for the same application.
