Product Details

TrakMotive positions the AD-8073 as a CV axle shaft for driveline and axle repair where the original front right axle has worn joints, damaged boots, or ABS-related drivability concerns. The axle uses a bolt-on inboard connection with six inboard joint bolt holes and an Audi-style spline bolt outboard design, matching the listed vehicle applications. This part cross-references 8A0407272K and 60-7287 for the same application.

Compatible With 1990 Audi 90 Quattro, front right; 1991 Audi 90 Quattro, front right; 1990-1991 Audi Coupe Quattro, front right; and 1993-1995 Audi 90 Quattro, front right. The AD-8073 is also referenced by the TrakMotive part number AD-8073 for ordering and catalog lookup.

What This Part Helps Address

• Clicking or popping from a worn front right CV joint
• Vibration during acceleration from axle wear
• Grease loss caused by a damaged axle boot
• ABS warning concerns related to a failed tone ring or sensor input
• Driveline noise from a fatigued axle assembly

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify axle length, spline count, bolt pattern, and ABS ring style before installation. The axle bolt uses an M16 x 1.5 thread with a 27 mm hex and 97 mm length, and the inboard bolts use a 6 mm Allen head with M8 x 1.25 threads. ABS axles fit non-ABS applications unless otherwise noted, so confirm the vehicle’s original configuration against the listing before service.

TrakMotive states that this axle shaft is backed by a limited lifetime warranty. The manufacturer also notes ISO 9001:1007 and TS 16949:2009 certification, supporting controlled production and quality management for the AD-8073.
