Detailed Description

The HY-8327 is an AAR CV axle shaft engineered for the front left position on 2014-2015 Hyundai Tucson and 2014-2016 Kia Sportage models. It includes the axle nut and uses a 32 mm hex, M22 x 1.5 thread, and cotter pin locking style for proper service replacement. The axle’s 48-tooth ABS ring and included tone ring support vehicles equipped with ABS, while the manufacturer notes that ABS axles fit non-ABS applications unless otherwise noted.

TrakMotive’s AAR CV axle shaft line focuses on replacement driveline components built to match application-specific dimensions and connection styles. HY-8327 is a direct-fit option for the listed Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportage front left applications when the vehicle requires the specified spline counts, compressed length, and ABS ring configuration.

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

Common Replacement Issues

• Clicking or popping during turns from a worn CV joint
• Vibration under acceleration caused by axle wear or imbalance
• Torn or leaking axle boot leading to grease loss and contamination
• ABS warning light concerns related to a damaged tone ring or sensor input
• Driveline noise from excessive play in the front left axle assembly

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify front left fitment by matching the vehicle year, make, model, spline counts, compressed length, and axle nut specifications before installation. Inspect the hub, seals, and surrounding suspension components for wear, and confirm ABS ring alignment during assembly. Use the correct axle nut torque procedure for the vehicle and replace any damaged retaining hardware during service.
