What This Part Helps Address

• Grease leakage from a damaged axle boot
• ABS warning concerns tied to a failing tone ring or axle assembly
• Noise or looseness from a worn front left axle shaft

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm spline count, axle length, and axle nut thread size against the original part before installation. The axle nut is included and uses an M22 x 1.5 thread with a 32 mm hex size and cotter pin locking style.
