Detailed Description

This TrakMotive CV axle shaft is engineered for 2006-2008 Lexus RX400h front left and 2006-2007 Toyota Highlander front left applications, including the hybrid fuel Highlander listing. The TO-8222 uses a toothed ABS ring with 48 teeth and includes the tone ring for vehicles that rely on wheel speed signal input at the axle. TrakMotive positions this part within its CV Axle Shaft line, and the company notes ISO 9001:1007 and TS 16949:2009 certification for its manufacturing process.

This part cross-references Cardone New 66-5257 and Cardone Reman 60-5257 for the same application. The TO-8222 is a direct replacement choice when servicing a Lexus RX400h or Toyota Highlander front left axle assembly and matching the OE-style spline and connection layout is important.

What It Helps Address

• Clicking or popping from a worn CV joint during turns
• Vibration caused by axle shaft wear or imbalance
• Torn or deteriorated axle boot conditions
• ABS warning concerns related to a damaged tone ring or sensor input path
• Loss of driveline smoothness at the front left wheel position

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify spline count, axle nut thread size, and ABS ring configuration before installation. This axle uses a 32 mm hex axle nut with M22 x 1.5 threads and a stake-style locking design. Confirm front left fitment against the vehicle application and inspect related seals, hub components, and mounting points during service.
