TrakMotive FD-8255 front right CV axle shaft for the 2010-2015 Lincoln MKT and other vehicles carries drive torque from the transmission to the wheel. Its two joints let the wheel keep turning as the suspension moves and the wheel steers.
A torn boot, grease around the joint, clicking on turns or vibration under acceleration can mean the axle is worn. A worn wheel bearing or an out-of-balance tire can be behind those signs too, so find the cause before buying. This listing is one axle for the front right; the front left is a separate part, and both sides are normally replaced together.
This axle fits the 2010-2015 Lincoln MKT and the 2010-2014 Ford Flex.
