2-Piece Front CV Axle Shaft Set for 2014-2018 Subaru Forester, From 01/11/2014

Two-Piece Front CV Axle Shaft Set

Set of two front CV axle shaft assemblies for listed 2014–2018 Subaru Forester applications produced from the source-stated date of 01/11/2014.

Critical production-date warning: The source states “From 01/11/2014” but does not identify whether the date is written as month/day/year or day/month/year. Do not interpret this cutoff without verification. Check the VIN and vehicle production label, then confirm the required cutoff with the original axle references or a Subaru parts catalog before ordering.

Additional fitment warning: The source does not specify engine, naturally aspirated or turbo configuration, CVT or manual transmission, trim, left/right allocation, ABS configuration, inner and outer spline counts, compressed lengths, seal-surface diameters, inboard joint designs, or differential connections. Match both original front axles by VIN, side, dimensions, splines, and joint configuration.

Vehicle Compatibility

• 2014 Subaru Forester — only vehicles meeting the verified “From 01/11/2014” production cutoff
• 2015–2018 Subaru Forester — verify engine, transmission, side, and original axle configuration

Engine, turbo/non-turbo, transmission, trim, ABS, and production-location restrictions are not provided by the source.

Reference Numbers

447-62370, 447-62371, 44762370, 44762371, 3905619710, 28321SG000, 28321SG010, NCV66012, 66-7568, 667568

Reference numbers are provided for comparison. The source does not assign each number to a specific side. Match them together with the VIN, verified production cutoff, engine, transmission, axle dimensions, spline counts, seal surfaces, ABS configuration, and inboard-joint design.

Position and Quantity

• Axle: Front
• Quantity: Two CV axle assemblies
• Side allocation: Not explicitly confirmed; do not assume one left and one right without comparing the original axles and product images

Package Contents

Two front CV axle shaft assemblies. Axle nuts, retaining clips, seals, support bearings, brackets, ABS components, differential or transmission fluid, and installation hardware are not confirmed unless shown in the product images.

Installation Notes

CV axle replacement affects steering, suspension, wheel-bearing retention, and differential sealing; professional installation is strongly recommended. Compare each replacement axle with its original counterpart before installation. Confirm side, overall and compressed length, inner and outer spline counts, joint and seal-surface diameters, ABS configuration, and inboard connection. Inspect the wheel bearings and hubs, ball joints, control arms, tie-rod ends, differential seals, and engine/transmission mounts. Use new axle nuts or retaining hardware where required, follow Subaru torque specifications, refill any lost fluid with the specified type, and check for leaks. Do not allow vehicle weight to rest on a wheel bearing while its axle is loose. Complete an alignment check if suspension geometry was disturbed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are two axles included?
Yes. The source confirms a two-piece front axle set.

Is this one left axle and one right axle?
The source does not explicitly assign the two pieces by side. Verify the product images, references, lengths, joints, and original left/right axles.

What does “From 01/11/2014” mean?
The source does not state the date format. Confirm the production cutoff from the VIN label and a vehicle-specific parts catalog.

Does this fit both CVT and manual-transmission Foresters?
Transmission coverage is not confirmed. Match the VIN, transmission, original references, dimensions, splines, and inboard connections.
