TrakMotive RN-8049 CV Axle Shaft - Front Right

CV Axle Shaft for Driveline Repair

TrakMotive RN-8049 is a new CV axle shaft built for driveline service where a direct replacement axle is needed. This CV axle shaft uses a neoprene boot, a female inboard connection, and a conventional outboard joint layout to support smooth power transfer in the application it was engineered for.

Compatible With select vehicle applications that use a 23-spline inboard and 21-spline outboard axle configuration, RN-8049 is a fitment-specific replacement for common CV axle service needs. The included axle nut features an M20 x 1.5 thread, nylon lock design, and hex head for installation on the correct application.

Detailed Description

TrakMotive RN-8049 is a CV axle shaft designed as a direct replacement for the specified driveline application. It is a new unit with a 28.66-inch compressed length, a female inboard joint connection, and a conventional outboard joint design. The axle uses a neoprene boot and includes the axle nut required for the correct threaded hub interface.

TrakMotive’s CV Axle Shaft line focuses on replacement driveline components for passenger vehicle repair, and RN-8049 follows that approach with application-specific spline counts and connection styles. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. Use RN-8049 when servicing a vehicle that matches the listed axle dimensions and spline configuration, including select Honda Civic and Acura Integra applications where this axle specification is called for.

Common Repair Uses

• Restores drivetrain power transfer when the original axle is worn or damaged
• Addresses clicking or popping noises during turns caused by CV joint wear
• Helps correct vibration from a failing axle shaft or joint assembly
• Replaces a torn boot condition that has led to grease loss and contamination
• Supports repair of axle-related noise, play, or driveline imbalance

Installation Notes

Verify spline count, compressed length, and axle nut thread size before installation. RN-8049 uses a 29.5 mm axle nut hex size and a 19.5 mm axle nut height, so confirm the hub and fastener specification on the vehicle before assembly. ABS tone ring is not included, and ABS axles fit non-ABS applications unless otherwise noted by the vehicle listing.

For best results, inspect related suspension and hub components during axle replacement and confirm the application matches the vehicle’s original axle configuration. Fits 2000-2001 Honda Civic, front; Fits 1994-2001 Acura Integra, front.
