Detailed Description

TrakMotive TO-8296 is a CV axle shaft for rear left driveline service on select Lexus GS300 and Lexus IS250 applications. It is configured with a 27-spline inboard side, 30-spline outboard side, and a 30.35-inch compressed length to match the listed fitment. The included axle nut uses an M26 x 1.5 thread, hex head design, and stake locking style for the specified installation.

TrakMotive identifies this axle as a new part and notes that ABS axles fit non-ABS applications unless otherwise noted. The brand line focuses on CV axle shaft replacement parts for driveline and axle service, making TO-8296 a direct-reference option for rear left Lexus GS300 and Lexus IS250 repairs. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What This Part Helps Address

• Clicking or popping from a worn CV joint
• Vibration during acceleration from axle wear
• Grease leakage from a damaged boot
• Excessive driveline play at the rear axle
• Noise from a failing rear left axle assembly

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear left fitment against the vehicle build date before ordering, especially for the 2006 Lexus GS300 listed from 6/05. Confirm spline count, axle length, and axle nut thread size before installation. Inspect the hub, seals, and surrounding suspension components for wear so the replacement axle can be installed on a clean, serviceable interface.

For 2006-2008 Lexus IS250, rear left, and 2006 Lexus GS300, rear left, use the listed application data to confirm the correct axle shaft before disassembly. The axle nut is included, but no ABS tone ring is included.
