Rear Left CV Axle for 2010-2017 Chevrolet Equinox & More - CARDONE New 66-1538

The CARDONE New 66-1538 rear left cv axle for the 2010-2017 Chevrolet Equinox and other vehicles carries power from the transaxle to the wheel hub, and it is built around the reasons original axles typically fail.

• Each shaft is individually verified for straightness, for vibration-free performance at all speeds.
• Proprietary engineering processes meet O.E. form, fit and function, and measurements are validated after assembly.
• Neoprene boots have additional bellows, when needed, to resist bellow stress and ozone cracking, the leading cause of boot failure.
• Boot clamps are pneumatically crimped to seal the boot to the housing.
• The grease withstands high-temperature and high-torque demands.
• Splines and threads are precision rolled for a proper fit in the hub, the transmission and the axle nut.

Clicking on turns with the wheel cut, grease on the chassis, or a thump under acceleration can mean a cv axle assembly is worn or its boot has split. With the engine off, look over the boot for tears and flung grease first, since a hub bearing or engine mount can also cause noise. This listing is one axle; replace the matching side too if it is worn.

It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2010-2017 Chevrolet Equinox and the 2010-2017 GMC Terrain, and either one takes a single rear left axle.
