CARDONE's extensive experience in testing and engineering CV Drive Axles leads to products that meet and even exceed O.E. performance. Through research into why original CVs typically fail, CARDONE has designed new solutions to avoid repeat failure. For example, their Neoprene boots are designed with additional bellows, when needed, to resist bellow stress and ozone cracking - the leading cause of boot failure. Additionally, all CV Drive Axle shafts are individually verified for straightness, resulting in vibration-free performance at all speeds.
Features & Benefits:
Proprietary engineering processes ensure that all CV Drive Axles meet O.E. form, fit and function
Neoprene boots are designed with additional bellows, when needed, to resist bellow stress and cracking, which is the leading cause of boot failure
A new axle retaining nut is supplied with every unit for a hassle-free installation, due to the likelihood that the original retaining nut is worn or stripped
CV Drive Axle measurements are validated after assembly to ensure a proper fit
Boot clamps are pneumatically crimped, creating a perfect seal between the boot and housing
High-quality grease withstands high-temperature and high-torque demands to ensure long-lasting, reliable performance
Splines are precision rolled to ensure proper fit of CV Drive Axle into the mating hub and transmission, which eliminates installation hassles
Threads are precision rolled to ensure proper fit when axle nut is installed
Transmission seal diameter is precision-machined after heat treatment to ensure correct surface finish, promoting long seal life
Installation Tip: If the part comes with an ABS Ring, but your vehicle does not have ABS, you may leave the ring in place if it does not interfere with installation.
