The TrakMotive TO-8043 CV axle shaft is a new front axle assembly for select Toyota Tacoma and Toyota 4Runner applications. It is built for front left and front right positions where the original axle has worn, clicked, or lost smooth power transfer.

Detailed Description

TrakMotive TO-8043 is a replacement CV axle shaft for Toyota Tacoma and Toyota 4Runner front axle applications. It is engineered as a new part, not remanufactured, and uses a male inboard shaft connection with a conventional outboard joint layout. The axle measures 24.09 inches compressed and includes a neoprene boot to help protect the joint area during normal operation.

This part is listed for 2001-2004 Toyota Tacoma front right and front left, 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner front right and front left, plus select 1995-2000 Toyota Tacoma and 1995-1996 Toyota Tacoma front left applications with automatic locking hub notes. For buyers searching for a Toyota Tacoma front CV axle shaft or a Toyota 4Runner front axle replacement, TO-8043 provides a direct-reference option for the specified positions and years. This part cross-references Cardone New 66-5134 and Gates 2170 for the same application. Part number TO-8043 may also appear in interchange listings for related driveline replacement searches.

What It Helps Fix

• Clicking or popping from a worn front CV joint
• Vibration during acceleration from a damaged axle shaft
• Torn or deteriorated axle boot conditions
• Front-wheel drive or 4WD driveline noise tied to axle wear
• Loss of smooth torque transfer at the front wheels

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify spline count, axle length, and front position before installation. This axle is listed for non-lifted vehicles only where noted in the fitment data, and some Tacoma applications require automatic locking hub configurations. The supplied axle nut uses a 40.8 mm hex size and cotter pin locking style; confirm hub and knuckle hardware condition during service. If the vehicle is equipped with ABS, note that ABS axles fit non-ABS applications unless otherwise noted, and this axle does not include an ABS tone ring.
