TrakMotive CV Axle Shaft Product Line Details
The TrakMotive CV Axle Shaft product line focuses on delivering dependable constant velocity components designed to maintain driveline integrity and smooth power transfer. This line emphasizes precise fitment and durable materials, such as neoprene boots and self-locking axle nuts, to reduce maintenance and extend service life. The NI-8605 model exemplifies these qualities with its flange inboard joint and conventional outboard joint design, tailored for specific Nissan and INFINITI applications.
Technical Specifications and Features
The NI-8605 CV axle shaft features a hex head axle nut measuring 1.38 inches (35 mm) across flats, with a height of 0.73 inches (18.5 mm) and a length of 1.59 inches (40.42 mm). The axle nut is self-locking to prevent loosening during operation. The inboard joint uses a flange connection style secured by bolts, while the outboard joint employs a conventional design with 34 splines for secure engagement. The neoprene boot material offers resistance to wear and environmental factors, helping to protect the joint from contaminants. The overall compressed length of 28.74 inches (730 mm) ensures proper fitment within the driveline assembly.
Applications and Problem Solving
- Replacement for worn or damaged CV axle shafts on Nissan Armada, INFINITI QX56, and QX80
- Addresses issues such as axle vibration and clicking noises during turns
- Resolves grease leakage caused by torn or degraded CV boots

Installation Notes and Tips
Ensure compatibility by verifying vehicle make and model before installation. The bolt-on flange inboard joint requires proper torque specifications for secure mounting. Use the included self-locking hex axle nut (M27*1.5 thread) and tighten to manufacturer-recommended torque values. Inspect surrounding components such as wheel bearings and suspension parts during installation to ensure overall driveline health. Proper lubrication and boot inspection are critical to maintain joint longevity.
