Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Clicking or snapping noises during turns from a worn outer CV joint
• Grease leakage around the axle boot from a ruptured boot
• Front-end vibration caused by a bent or out-of-runout axle shaft
• ABS warning light issues after axle replacement when the sensor ring is not correct
• Clunking or thumping during acceleration from driveline wear

Installation Notes

• Fits 1989-1994 Nissan Maxima, front right.
• Do not let the CV axle hang unsupported during service; this can damage the inner joint.
• Use a torque wrench on the retaining nut and tighten to the manufacturer specification.
• Replace the old prevailing-torque lock nut rather than reusing it.
• Install new transaxle seals when replacing CV axle assemblies to help prevent leaks.
• If the ABS light remains on after installation, inspect the sensor ring, sensor, and nearby wiring for damage.
