Product Details

Cardone’s CV axle assembly line is engineered around common failure points found in original drive axles. The axle uses neoprene boots with added bellows where needed to reduce stress and help resist ozone cracking, while the shaft is individually verified for straightness to support smooth operation and reduced vibration. High-temperature grease and precision-machined seal surfaces are used to support long service life in demanding driveline conditions.

This part cross-references Honda OE numbers 44306SE0921 and 44306SE0922 for the same application. Cardone 66-4006 is a practical replacement for front left Honda Accord and Honda Prelude driveline service where the original axle shows wear, noise, or boot failure.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Clicking or snapping noises during turns
• Grease leakage from a torn or cracked CV boot
• Vibration caused by axle runout or shaft wear
• Grinding or thumping from the front driveline
• ABS warning light concerns after axle replacement when the sensor ring is damaged or missing

Installation Notes

• Do not let the axle hang unsupported during service.
• Use a torque wrench on the retaining nut and follow manufacturer specifications.
• Do not reuse a prevailing-torque lock nut; install the supplied new nut.
• Replace transaxle seals when servicing CV drive axles to help prevent leaks.
• Inspect ABS wiring, sensor, and ring components before final assembly.

Quality Assurance

Cardone verifies shafts for straightness and runout to help reduce vibration and support consistent driveline performance. The axle is engineered to meet or exceed original equipment performance targets through testing and design improvements focused on known failure modes.
