TrakMotive KA-8083 front left CV axle shaft for the 2012-2013 Kia Soul carries drive torque to the wheel while the suspension moves. Use this TrakMotive CV axle when the original is worn or its boot has torn.
A worn axle can show up as clicking when turning, grease thrown around the wheel from a torn boot, or vibration when accelerating. Before you replace the axle, rule out a wheel bearing, tire or brake problem, since those can produce similar noise or vibration; if the axle is the cause, this one replaces it.
This axle fits the 2012-2013 Kia Soul. Front axles are normally replaced as a pair, and this listing is one axle for the front left; the 2012-2013 Kia Soul takes one on that side, and the front right is ordered separately.
