TrakMotive SB-9040XTT CV Axle Shaft - Front Left or Front Right

Extended Travel CV Axle for Subaru Fitments

TrakMotive SB-9040XTT is an extended travel CV axle shaft built for Subaru applications that need more suspension movement than a standard OE axle can provide. It is designed for front right and front left positions on select Subaru Forester and Subaru Impreza models, including vehicles used for extreme articulation.

Key Features

• Extended Travel CV Axle Shaft from TrakMotive
• Sliding center bar provides up to 44 mm more travel than a typical OEM CV shaft
• CV joints allow up to 47 degrees of articulation versus a typical 23-degree OE joint angle
• New axle shaft with neoprene boot material
• Includes ABS tone ring with 44-tooth toothed ring design
• Axle nut included with M22 x 1.5 thread, stake locking type, and 31.8 mm hex size
• Overall compressed length: 780 mm (30.71 in.)
• Inboard joint type: male; outboard joint type: conventional

Product Details

TrakMotive SB-9040XTT is part of the Extended Travel CV Axle Shaft line, a product range focused on driveline service where additional suspension droop and joint angle are required. This axle uses a sliding center bar to increase travel and reduce binding in high-articulation setups. For Subaru Forester and Subaru Impreza front axle service, SB-9040XTT provides the geometry needed for vehicles that operate beyond standard OE suspension limits.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Installation Notes and Tips

• Confirm front right or front left application before installation.
• Verify spline count, axle nut thread size, and ABS tone ring requirements against the original axle.
• Inspect related driveline components, seals, and hub surfaces before assembly.
• Use the correct axle nut torque procedure for the vehicle platform.
• For Subaru Forester and Subaru Impreza service, follow the fitment notes for extreme articulation and model exclusions.
