Installation Notes
Professional installation is strongly recommended. Confirm that the axle is fully seated at the transmission or drive unit and wheel hub, protect the axle seal during installation, and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s torque specifications and axle-nut procedure. Inspect the hub bearing, axle seal, ball joint, tie-rod end, and surrounding suspension components. After installation, check for leaks, abnormal noise, vibration, ABS warnings, and secure fasteners before road use.
