Installation Notes

Do not let the CV axle hang unsupported during service, as this can damage the inner joint. Always replace the axle nut rather than reusing a prevailing-torque lock nut, and torque the new nut to the manufacturer specification with a torque wrench. When replacing CV drive axle assemblies, install new transaxle seals to help prevent leaks. If the ABS warning light appears after installation, inspect the sensor ring, sensor, and nearby wiring for damage.
