• ABS warning concerns related to a damaged tone ring or sensor interface

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify axle length, spline count, bolt pattern, and ABS ring style before installation. This axle uses a bolt-on inboard joint and an Audi-style spline bolt outboard connection, so matching the OE configuration is important for proper fitment. Confirm the front left position and the vehicle’s ABS setup before ordering or installing.
