Product Details

This Cardone CV axle assembly is part of the brand’s CV Drive Axle line, which focuses on addressing common failure causes found in original equipment axles. The design emphasizes boot durability, seal life, and shaft runout control to support consistent operation in everyday driving.

This part cross-references Chrysler and Dodge OE numbers such as MR165596 and MR430482 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Clicking or snapping noises during turns
• Grease leakage around the axle boot or chassis
