Product Details

The TrakMotive CV Axle Shaft, part number HY-8260, is a replacement driveline component for front left service on the 2010 Kia Forte and 2010 Kia Forte Koup. It uses a male inboard shaft connection, conventional outboard joint design, and matched 27-spline connections at both ends to support proper fitment and drivetrain engagement. The included ABS tone ring and 46-tooth toothed ring help maintain wheel speed signal compatibility where required. TrakMotive positions the CV Axle Shaft line as a direct replacement solution for driveline and axle repairs, and HY-8260 is built as a new part rather than remanufactured.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Repair Uses

• Clicking or popping noises during turns
• Vibration felt through the drivetrain under acceleration
• Grease leakage from a damaged CV boot
• Worn or noisy front axle assembly on the left side
• ABS-related wheel speed signal issues when the tone ring is damaged

Installation Notes

Verify front left fitment before installation on the 2010 Kia Forte or 2010 Kia Forte Koup. Confirm axle length, spline count, axle nut thread size, and ABS tone ring requirements against the original part. Replace any worn hub or sealing components as needed, and torque the axle nut to the vehicle manufacturer’s specification during installation.

Quality Assurance

TrakMotive lists HY-8260 with a limited lifetime warranty. The manufacturer also states that ABS axles fit non-ABS applications unless otherwise noted, and that its production is backed by ISO 9001:1007 and TS 16949:2009 certification.
