Cardone 66-8134 CV Axle Assembly - Front Right

Cardone CV Axle Assembly 66-8134

Cardone 66-8134 is a new front right CV axle assembly built for direct replacement on select Kia applications. It is engineered with attention to axle straightness, boot durability, and seal fit to support smooth driveline operation in the 2001 Kia Sephia and 2001-2004 Kia Spectra.

Key Features

• ABS ring included with 46 teeth for proper wheel speed signal integration
• New axle retaining nut supplied for service-ready installation
• Splined 28-tooth input and output shaft connections
• Neoprene boots with added bellows where needed to reduce stress and cracking
• High-temperature, high-torque grease for driveline service demands
• Boot clamps are pneumatically crimped for a tight boot-to-housing seal
• Transmission seal diameter is precision-machined after heat treatment for correct surface finish
• Each shaft is verified for straightness to help reduce vibration

Product Details

This Cardone CV axle assembly is part of the Cardone CV Axle Assembly line, which focuses on remanufactured driveline engineering and failure prevention. The design addresses common CV axle wear points such as boot cracking, seal leakage, and vibration by using verified shaft runout control, durable boot construction, and precise machining at the seal surface. Cardone 66-8134 is a direct-fit driveline replacement for front right service on the Kia Sephia and Kia Spectra listed below.

This part cross-references Kia OEM numbers 0K2C025500 and 0K2NA25500 for the same application.

Vehicle Fitment

• Fits 2001 Kia Sephia, front right.
• Fits 2001-2004 Kia Spectra, front right.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Clicking or snapping noises during turns
• Grease on the chassis or suspension from a torn CV boot
• Vibration during acceleration caused by axle runout or imbalance
• ABS warning light after axle replacement when the sensor ring is damaged or incorrect
• Grinding or thumping from the front end related to CV joint wear

Installation Notes

Do not let the axle hang unsupported during service, as this can damage the inner joint. Use a torque wrench on the spindle nut and follow manufacturer torque specifications; do not use an impact wrench for final tightening. Replace the old prevailing-torque nut rather than reusing it, and install new transaxle seals when replacing CV axle assemblies to help prevent leaks.

Quality Assurance

Cardone engineers CV drive axles to meet or exceed original equipment performance targets through testing, runout inspection, and boot design improvements aimed at reducing repeat failure. Each shaft is individually checked for straightness to support vibration-free operation at speed.
