Product Details
TrakMotive SB-8001 is part of the AAR CV Axle Shaft line, a replacement driveline solution for front-wheel applications that require accurate spline count, shaft length, and joint configuration. This axle is built new, not remanufactured, and is listed with a hex-style axle nut, neoprene boot, and conventional outboard joint design. It is also backed by TrakMotive’s manufacturing quality standards, with ISO 9001:1007 and TS 16949:2009 certification noted by the manufacturer.
Compatible With 1990-2001 Subaru Legacy, front; 1993-2001 Subaru Impreza, front; and 1998-2000 Subaru Forester, front. For Subaru Impreza and Subaru Legacy applications, the intermediate shaft should be inspected for wear or damage during axle replacement. For 2000 Subaru Forester fitment, the listing applies to vehicles built before 02/00. This part cross-references Cardone New 66-7055 and AMS Automotive 4105 for the same application.
Common Repair Applications
- Front axle noise or vibration during acceleration
- Clicking or popping from a worn CV joint
- Torn or deteriorated axle boot
- Axle shaft play from spline or joint wear
- Driveline issues on Subaru Impreza, Forester, or Legacy front applications
Installation Notes
Verify spline count, compressed length, and axle nut specifications before installation. Inspect the intermediate shaft on Subaru Impreza and Legacy applications and replace it if damage is present. Confirm the vehicle build date for 2000 Subaru Forester applications, since fitment is limited to vehicles built before 02/00. Always follow proper torque and staking procedures for the included axle nut.
Quality Assurance
TrakMotive identifies this axle as a new replacement part and notes ISO 9001:1007 and TS 16949:2009 certified manufacturing. The SB-8001 also carries a limited lifetime warranty from the manufacturer.
