Product Details

Cardone’s CV Axle Assembly line is engineered from testing and remanufacturing experience focused on common failure points in CV drive axles. For this Cardone 66-7232 application, the axle shaft is individually verified for straightness to help reduce vibration, while the boot and grease package are selected to handle demanding driveline conditions. This part cross-references Suzuki 4410260G51 and 4410260G52 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Clicking or snapping during hard turns
• Grease leakage around a torn outer CV boot
• Front-end vibration during acceleration
• Grinding noise from the front axle area
• ABS warning light caused by a damaged sensor ring or wiring near the axle

Installation Notes

For Suzuki Esteem front left CV axle replacement, do not let the axle hang unsupported during service. Always install a new transaxle seal when replacing the axle, and use a torque wrench to tighten the spindle nut to the manufacturer’s specification. Do not reuse a prevailing-torque lock nut. If the ABS light remains on after installation, inspect the sensor ring, sensor, and nearby wiring for damage.

Quality Assurance

Cardone designs this CV axle assembly to meet or exceed original equipment performance targets through application-specific engineering and inspection. Shafts are checked for straightness and runout to support vibration-free operation at speed, and the boot design is intended to resist the cracking and stress that commonly lead to repeat CV axle failure.
