**Correction!** At 3:10 we forgot to show replacing the axle nut washer before putting the axle nut on. Don't forget this detail!
A CV axle has flexible joints. Often, these joints wear out, or seize from contaminants due to the protective boot tearing open. A worn joint is prone to breakage, or other hazards. If your vehicle needs a new CV axle, install a quality TRQ axle that is engineered to your vehicle’s specifications. This video shows you how to install one in your 1999-2007 Chevy Silverado.

Well, I just did mine and on a 2003 PA truck with 107,000 miles everything came apart and went back together as easy as this dude’s video. I’m generally as amazed as you are. lol good luck, boys.

I bought two trq cards axles and both were bad out of the box. I already had my old axles out when I found out so I bought new ones at a local auto parts store. I learned trq is not trustworthy nor reliable, but was low quality instead. Thanks for the life lesson trq!

I like how you edit it out the hardest part at 1:55. Guess it just takes a little finagling to get it out of that tight spot

@magzxi 3 года назад

Great video! Quick and to the point with all the specs. I love it! My only constructive advice would be to tell the people without a lift to loosen lug nuts and cv axle nut before jacking the truck up.

When I replaced my new axle on my 99 suburban k1500. Front driverside. I here a light maybe clunk sound when I stop. And noticed my transaxle stub for that axle wiggles a little bit. Is that normal?

Is the outside Axel nut a 36mm(Someone mentioned a 35mm, Also what is the size of the inside bolts thread pitch and length mine have all fallen out. And I can't find any information online anywhere about the size thread pitch and length on those bolts thank you in advance

@MrTwinsfan100 Год назад

Axle nut (spindle nut) should be 36mm! Not sure on the bolts though. Might try an online parts manual. Usually there’s a diagram on there somewhere. Good luck!

Hello I have a 2004 Silverado 1500 Lt/Z71. I had front done and driver side tire still shakes at any speed or turn to right what can it be. Spend $5000 for repairs etc. Doesn't shake if doing 65 and higher. Help

@Collector57 2 года назад

Sometimes, it's just two or more loose lug nuts causing heavy vibration. I drove an 02 Silverado home and was almost sure the front left bearing was toast. Turns out, it was 3 loose lug nuts. Torqued them down and it's been driving smooth since.

Do you guys sell extended CV axles for lifted trucks I'm only seeing the standard ones on yalls site if so can you send me the link, (2003 silverado 1500 ext cab)because I can only find one set at Orileys and they're $350 a piece and I'm not trying to spend that!

@BIGHEN_ 2 года назад

@@TRQ quick question can you drive without the CV axles in??

@Collector57 2 года назад

@@BIGHEN_ Not at all. There would be no power going from the front diff to wheels meaning the bearings would be taking all the load. They'll blow out in an instant.

I haven't o3 GMC Sierra with a 4-in lift and I can tell you it is a lot easier to back the bottom bolt off on the shock and just move the shock out of the way and you can remove and put the new axle in much easier than removing the sway bar link much easier

Do you have to have the truck off the ground to change the axle?

@chastblind7606 2 года назад

Yes there won't be enough room to remove axle. Suspension needs to droop down a little

@chastblind7606 2 года назад

Just the front tho.

Is an alignment really necessary? Honest question.

No it is not, nothing in the suspension or steering has been removed, it's strictly a drivetrain component

This is the third video that does not match what I have under the front end of my 2001 2WD Silverado 1500 ext cab..... There is no CV joint like this with two boots and there is nothing, i mean nothing... coming out of the inside of my wheel hub... just a smooth metal cap on the inside. I do have the piece in front of all that with the small boot toward the middle of the truck and the long end that hooks into the steering knuckle... That is it.... I am losing my freaking mind...
