Detailed Description

MOOG 16H003 is a front CV axle assembly for Subaru Impreza, WRX, XV Crosstrek, and Forester models listed above. The axle uses a male inboard joint and a conventional outboard joint, with 25 inboard splines and 27 outboard splines for the specified applications. Its neoprene inboard boot and thermoplastic outboard boot support durable sealing at the joints, while the included axle nut helps streamline replacement work. This part cross-references Subaru OE numbers 28321SC000 and 28321SC001 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

  • Clicking or popping during turns caused by worn CV joints
  • Vibration or shudder during acceleration from a failing axle shaft
  • Grease leakage from damaged axle boots
  • Noise from excessive driveline play
  • Front axle service needs on Subaru Impreza, WRX, XV Crosstrek, and Forester models

Installation Notes and Quality Assurance

Verify spline count, compressed length, axle nut thread size, and front position before installation. Confirm ABS requirements separately, since this axle does not include an ABS tone ring. MOOG backs this CV axle with premium materials and rigorous testing to support reliable performance and easier installation on the listed Subaru applications.
