Detailed Description

TrakMotive CV Axle Shaft FD-8117 is a direct-fit driveline replacement for front left applications on the 2005-2007 Ford Five Hundred, 2005-2007 Ford Freestyle, and 2005-2007 Mercury Montego. This CV axle shaft uses a male inboard connection, a conventional outboard connection, and the specified spline counts to match the original driveline layout. The included axle nut features a 31.8 mm hex size and M22 x 1.5 thread size for proper service fitment. TrakMotive FD-8117 is a practical choice when replacing a worn axle on a Ford Five Hundred front left or Mercury Montego front left setup.

The TrakMotive CV Axle Shaft line is positioned for replacement applications where correct fit, joint style, and compressed length matter. This part number, FD-8117, is built as a new unit and is backed by TrakMotive’s manufacturing quality standards, including ISO 9001:1007 and TS 16949:2009 certification.

What It Helps Address

  • Clicking or popping during turns from worn CV joints
  • Vibration or shudder during acceleration
  • Grease leakage from a damaged axle boot
  • Axle noise caused by spline or joint wear
  • Front left driveline replacement after axle damage

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify front left fitment by year, make, model, spline count, and compressed length before installation. This axle does not include an ABS tone ring, and ABS axles fit non-ABS applications unless otherwise noted by the vehicle listing. Confirm axle nut thread size, hex size, and locking style during service to ensure proper assembly. Always inspect related hub, bearing, and suspension components when replacing a CV axle shaft.
