Product Details

This TrakMotive CV axle shaft is engineered for the rear left side and matches the listed fitment for 2007-2012 Ford Fusion, 2007-2012 Lincoln MKZ, and 2007-2011 Mercury Milan. The FD-8175 uses a 25-spline inboard connection, 28-spline outboard connection, and a conventional outboard joint type to match the specified driveline configuration. It also includes a toothed ABS ring and tone ring, which is important for vehicles that rely on wheel speed signal input at the axle.

Installation Notes and Tips
