Product Details

What It Helps Address

  • Clicking or popping noises during turns from a worn CV joint
  • Vibration or shudder from a damaged axle shaft
  • Grease leakage from a deteriorated boot
  • Excessive play caused by worn spline or joint interfaces
  • Front right axle replacement needs on Mini Cooper Countryman and Mini Cooper Paceman models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify axle length, spline count, and axle nut thread size before installation. Confirm front right application and compare the original axle to BM-8165 for joint style and connection details. Because ABS tone ring is not included, check the vehicle’s original ABS configuration before service. Proper torque procedures and axle nut staking should be followed during installation.
