Product Details

The Cardone CV axle assembly is built for drivers who need a direct replacement for a worn or damaged front left axle on the Hyundai Veracruz. Cardone’s remanufacturing and engineering process focuses on the failure points that commonly affect CV drive axles, including boot cracking, grease loss, joint contamination, and shaft runout. The result is a replacement axle designed to maintain smooth power transfer and stable operation at speed. This part cross-references Hyundai 495003J000 and 495003J050 for the same application.

Common Problems This Axle Can Address

• Clicking or snapping during turns from a worn outer CV joint
• Grease on the chassis or suspension from a ruptured boot
• Front-end vibration caused by axle runout or shaft imbalance
• ABS warning light issues after axle replacement when the sensor ring is damaged or incorrect
• Thumping or driveline shudder from a failing CV axle assembly

Installation Notes

• Fits 2007-2012 Hyundai Veracruz, front left only
• Do not let the axle hang unsupported during service
• Use a torque wrench on the retaining nut and tighten to manufacturer specifications
• Do not reuse a prevailing-torque lock nut; install the supplied new nut
• Replace transaxle seals when servicing CV drive axle assemblies
• Inspect the ABS sensor, wiring, and ring during installation to avoid warning light issues

Quality Assurance

Cardone verifies shaft straightness and runout to help reduce vibration and maintain consistent performance. The axle is engineered using lessons learned from original CV axle failure patterns, with attention to boot durability, seal life, and joint reliability for the Hyundai Veracruz platform.
