About the Extended Travel CV Axle Shaft Product Line

The Extended Travel CV Axle Shaft line by TrakMotive is designed to accommodate vehicles requiring additional axle length for suspension travel or lift applications. This product line focuses on maintaining driveline integrity and smooth operation under extended travel conditions. The NI-8185XTT model fits within this line, offering a precise fit and robust construction for Nissan and INFINITI vehicles that demand reliable axle performance.

Product Details and Specifications

This CV axle shaft features a neoprene boot that resists wear and environmental damage, helping to protect the joint from contaminants. The inboard joint uses a flange type connection with six bolt holes, providing a secure and stable attachment to the vehicle’s drivetrain. The bolt-on inboard shaft connection style simplifies installation without compromising strength. On the outboard side, the male joint with 28 splines ensures a tight fit with the wheel hub, supporting efficient torque transfer. The overall compressed length of 20.35 inches (517 mm) matches factory specifications for compatible Nissan D21, Pathfinder, Pickup, and INFINITI QX4 models.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for worn or damaged CV axle shafts on Nissan D21 and Pathfinder
• Addressing axle length requirements for lifted Nissan Pickup trucks
• Restoring driveline function on INFINITI QX4 models with extended travel needs
• Eliminating vibration or clicking noises caused by failing CV joints
• Improving drivetrain reliability in off-road or heavy-duty use cases

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure vehicle compatibility by verifying make, model, and year before installation. The bolt-on inboard shaft connection requires proper torque on the six bolt holes to secure the flange joint. Use appropriate tools to avoid damaging the neoprene boot during installation. Since the axle nut is not included, retain or replace the existing nut as needed. Proper alignment and lubrication of splines will help maintain smooth operation and extend service life.
