Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm spline count, axle length, ABS ring style, and axle nut specifications before installation. This axle uses a 32 mm hex axle nut with M22 x 1.5 thread and cotter pin locking, so verify the hub and knuckle hardware match the listed application. Always compare the removed axle to the replacement part before assembly, especially on vehicles with ABS or prior drivetrain modifications.

For best results, inspect the wheel hub, seals, and surrounding suspension components during replacement. Proper torque procedures and alignment checks after installation help ensure smooth operation on the front right side.
