Product Details

TrakMotive CV Axle Shaft FD-8171 is engineered for front right driveline replacement on the Ford Five Hundred and Mercury Montego. The axle uses a male inboard shaft connection, a spline-style outboard connection, and a conventional outboard joint layout. It also includes the axle nut specified for the application, with a hex head, self-lock design, and M22 x 1.5 thread size. TrakMotive identifies this axle line as a new replacement component and notes ISO 9001:1007 and TS 16949:2009 certification for the company.

This part cross-references Cardone New 66-2163 and Cardone Reman 60-2163 for the same application.

Common Replacement Reasons

  • Clicking or popping during turns from worn CV joints
  • Vibration or shudder during acceleration
  • Torn or deteriorated axle boot with grease loss
  • Excessive driveline play or noise from a damaged axle shaft
  • Front right axle failure on 2005-2007 Ford Five Hundred or Mercury Montego

Installation Notes

Verify front right application, spline count, and axle length before installation. Confirm whether the vehicle is equipped for a non-ABS axle application, since ABS axles fit non-ABS applications unless otherwise noted. Inspect the hub, seals, and related suspension components during replacement to help ensure proper axle engagement and smooth operation.

Quality Assurance

TrakMotive FD-8171 is a new CV axle shaft backed by a limited lifetime warranty. The brand also states company certification to ISO 9001:1007 and TS 16949:2009 standards.
