This part cross-references Cardone New 66-8114 for the same application.

What This Part Helps Address

• Clicking or popping noises during turns from a worn CV joint
• Vibration or shudder during acceleration from axle wear
• Grease leakage from a damaged axle boot
• ABS-related drivability concerns tied to a worn tone ring or sensor ring
• Excessive play in the front right driveline assembly

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify front right fitment by year, make, model, spline count, and axle length before installation. Inspect the hub, seals, and surrounding suspension components for wear, and confirm the axle nut thread size and locking style match the vehicle requirements. Because this axle includes an ABS ring and tone ring, confirm the vehicle’s ABS configuration during service.

For best results, compare the removed axle to MZ-8044 before assembly and torque fasteners to the vehicle manufacturer’s specifications.
