Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Cardone 66-7460 CV Axle Assembly, avoid letting the axle shafts hang unsupported to prevent damage. Use a torque wrench to tighten the bolt-style axle nut to the manufacturer’s specifications; do not use an impact wrench for this step. Always replace axle nuts with new ones as reusing prevailing torque lock nuts is not recommended. Inspect related seals and components during installation and replace as necessary to ensure proper sealing and function.
