Product Details

This TrakMotive CV axle shaft is part of the brand’s CV Axle Shaft line and is built for front right driveline replacement on vehicles such as the 2006-2011 Buick Lucerne, 2000-2005 Buick LeSabre, 1997-2005 Buick Park Avenue, 2000-2005 Pontiac Bonneville, 2001-2002 Oldsmobile Aurora, and 1995-1997 Buick Riviera. The GM-8167 uses a male inboard connection, a conventional outboard connection, and a neoprene boot to support CV joint operation in the specified fitments. TrakMotive identifies this part as a new unit and notes that ABS axles fit non-ABS applications unless otherwise noted.

Common Replacement Uses

• Front right axle noise or vibration during acceleration
• Clicking or popping from a worn CV joint
• Boot damage that has allowed grease loss or contamination
• Axle spline wear or driveline looseness at the hub or transaxle
• Restoring driveline function on Buick Lucerne, Buick LeSabre, Buick Park Avenue, Pontiac Bonneville, Oldsmobile Aurora, and Buick Riviera applications

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify front right fitment by year, make, model, and axle configuration before installation. Confirm the axle nut thread size, hex size, and locking style match the vehicle specification, and inspect the hub, seals, and mating splines for wear before assembly. Because this axle does not include an ABS tone ring, confirm the vehicle does not require one for the application.
