Product Details

Cardone 66-9240 is engineered as a CV drive axle assembly for Volvo S70 and Volvo V70 front left applications. Cardone’s CV axle development focuses on the common causes of axle failure, including boot cracking, grease loss, contamination, and vibration from shaft runout. Each shaft is individually checked for straightness to help deliver smooth operation at speed, while the precision-machined seal surface supports long seal life at the transmission interface. This part cross-references Volvo 8251513 and 8601566 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Clicking or snapping noise during hard turns and acceleration
• Grease leakage around the axle boot or underbody
• Front-end vibration caused by axle runout or shaft imbalance
• ABS warning light triggered by a damaged sensor ring or related axle hardware
• Grinding or thumping from a worn outer or inner CV joint

Installation Notes and Tips

• Do not let the CV axle hang unsupported during service; support the shaft to avoid joint damage.
• Use a torque wrench on the retaining nut and tighten to the vehicle manufacturer’s specification.
• Do not reuse a prevailing-torque lock nut; replace it with the supplied new nut.
• Inspect the transaxle seals during replacement and install new seals if needed to prevent leaks.
• If the ABS light remains on after installation, inspect the sensor ring, sensor, and nearby wiring for damage.

Quality Assurance

Cardone applies testing and engineering methods developed from CV axle remanufacturing experience to help the part meet or exceed original equipment performance targets. The axle shaft is verified for straightness, and the boot and seal details are designed to reduce repeat failure points commonly seen in driveline service.
