Installation Tips for Optimal Performance
Replacing CV axles is a straightforward job for most with basic tools, typically taking 1-2 hours per side. Start by safely lifting the vehicle, removing the wheel and axle nut, then disconnecting the lower ball joint and hub. Slide out the old axle, tap in the new one, and torque everything to spec. Always replace axle seals and use new hardware to prevent premature failure. Post-install, test for smooth operation and check for leaks after a short drive.
