Installation Notes and Tips
When installing the Cardone 66-6140 CV Axle Assembly, avoid letting the axle shafts hang unsupported to prevent joint damage. Use a torque wrench to tighten the axle nut to manufacturer 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. Inspect seals and replace them as needed to prevent leaks and contamination.
