Product Details

This TrakMotive CV axle shaft is engineered for direct replacement in front left and front right positions listed in the fitment data. It is a new driveline component with a male inboard shaft connection, conventional outboard shaft connection, and no ABS tone ring included. The axle nut is included, and the assembly uses a 32.8 mm hex size with M27x2 thread specification. SN-8016 is listed for 2005-2006 Chevrolet Equinox front left, 2006 Pontiac Torrent front left, and 2002-2003 Saturn Vue front left and front right.

TrakMotive’s CV Axle Shaft line focuses on replacement axle assemblies for driveline service, and SN-8016 follows that product line approach with application-specific dimensions and spline counts. This part cross-references Cardone New 66-1400 for the same application.

Common Repair Symptoms

• Clicking or popping during turns from a worn CV joint
• Vibration under acceleration from a damaged axle shaft
• Grease leakage from a torn or deteriorated boot
• Clunking or looseness in the driveline from spline wear
• Front axle noise on Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent, or Saturn Vue service jobs

Installation Notes

Verify axle length, spline count, nut thread size, and position before installation. Confirm whether the vehicle uses the listed front left or front right application, and inspect hub, seal, and transmission-side interfaces during service. Because ABS axles can fit non-ABS applications unless otherwise noted, confirm the vehicle’s ABS configuration against the catalog data before ordering. Use the included axle nut and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s torque specifications during installation.

Quality Assurance

TrakMotive states that this axle shaft is backed by a limited lifetime warranty. The company also notes ISO 9001:1007 and TS 16949:2009 certification, reflecting controlled manufacturing and quality management practices.
