Detailed Description
This TrakMotive CV axle shaft is engineered as a direct driveline replacement for Subaru Legacy, Subaru Outback, and select 2014 Subaru Forester front axle applications. The SB-8079 uses a male inboard connection, conventional outboard connection, and a neoprene boot to support consistent articulation in front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive driveline service. The included axle nut uses an M22 x 1.5 thread with a stake-type locking design, and the axle measures 31.77 inches compressed overall.
TrakMotive positions this CV axle shaft line as a new replacement solution backed by ISO 9001:1007 and TS 16949:2009 certified manufacturing controls. This part cross-references Cardone New 66-07509 for the same application. For Subaru Legacy and Subaru Outback front axle repair, SB-8079 provides the fitment and dimensions needed for a direct service replacement.
Common Problems This Part Can Address
- Clicking or popping during turns from a worn outer CV joint
- Vibration under acceleration from a damaged axle shaft
- Torn or leaking CV boot conditions that contaminate the joint
- Excessive driveline play from worn inboard or outboard connections
- Front axle noise on Subaru Legacy, Outback, or Forester applications
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify front left or front right position, model year, and VIN break before ordering. This axle uses a 25-spline inboard and 27-spline outboard configuration, so compare the original shaft and hub interface before installation. Replace the axle nut during service and torque it to the vehicle manufacturer specification after installation. Confirm ABS requirements, since this axle does not include an ABS tone ring.
Quality Assurance
TrakMotive states that this CV axle shaft line is produced under ISO 9001:1007 and TS 16949:2009 certified quality systems. The SB-8079 also carries a limited lifetime warranty.
