What the CV Axle Does
CV axles are essential components of front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive vehicles. They allow power to be delivered smoothly to the wheels while accommodating suspension movement and steering angles.
Each CV axle includes:
- Inner and outer CV joints
- Protective rubber boots
- Grease lubrication
- Axle shaft
When a CV boot cracks or tears, grease escapes and contaminants enter the joint, leading to premature wear.

- Clicking or popping while turning
