Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Cardone CV Axle Assembly 66-1613, avoid letting the axle shafts hang unsupported to prevent joint damage. Use a torque wrench to tighten the self-locking axle nut to the manufacturer’s specifications; do not use an impact wrench on the retaining nut. Always replace the axle nut with a new one, as reusing a prevailing torque lock nut is not recommended. Ensure the splined shafts engage fully for proper fitment and driveline function.
