FAQ_Q1	Are the CV Drive Axle shafts balanced at the factory?
FAA_A1	Shafts are inspected 100% for run out to prevent vibrations. Only shafts that meet the specifications for run out are utilized in the remanufacturing of a CV Drive Axle assembly.
FAQ_Q2	I installed a replacement CV drive axle and now my ABS light is on and won't go out. Why?
FAA_A2	When the replacement drive axle was installed, the sensor ring, sensor, or sensor wiring on or near the axle was damaged, causing an erratic speed signal to the ABS module and setting the light on.
FAQ_Q3	When I cut the wheel hard and step on the gas, I hear loud clicking and snapping. What's making that noise?
FAA_A3	The most likely cause is a defective or worn outer CV drive axle joint. It may be time to get it replaced.
FAQ_Q4	When I step on the gas, I hear a loud thump and feel a bad vibration. What's wrong?
FAA_A4	The most likely cause is the drive train shifting in the chassis due to a broken engine mount or hardware, causing misalignment of the CV drive axle and causing the inner joint to bind or hang up.
FAQ_Q5	I hear a grinding noise from the front end while driving and see grease on the chassis and suspension. What is causing this?
FAA_A5	The most likely problem is the outer CV drive axle boot has ruptured, causing the grease to leak out, allowing contamination (water and dirt) to enter and damage the joint.
FAQ_Q6	I removed both CV drive axles at the same time and now I am having problems reinstalling them. What can I do?
FAA_A6	The transaxle gear alignment has been lost. On some vehicles it will be necessary to disassemble the transaxle to properly align the output gears. ALWAYS remove and install one CV drive axle at a time.
FAQ_Q7	The old CV Drive Axle has a locking style (prevailing torque) nut. Should I reuse it?
FAA_A7	NO! A prevailing torque lock nut should never be reused. Always discard the old nut and install a new one.
FAQ_Q8	The CV Drive Axle outboard joint stub shaft is stuck in the hub assembly. What's the best way to remove it?
FAA_A8	Always use the proper press type tool to remove the old stub shaft. NEVER strike the outer joint stub shaft with a hammer. It will damage the unit and possibly do damage to the hub bearing assembly.
FAQ_Q9	Is it OK to use an impact hammer to install the retaining nut?
FAA_A9	Never use an impact wrench to install the retaining nut on the CV Drive Axle. Always use a torque wrench and torque the nut to manufacture's specifications.
FAQ_Q10	When I replace the CV drive axles, should I reuse the old seals?
FAA_A10	When replacing CV Drive Axle assemblies, always install new transaxle seals to avoid leaking.
FAQ_Q11	Can I let the CV Drive Axles hang while I am working on the car?
FAA_A11	Never allow the CV Drive Axles to hang unsupported. This can lead to axle separation and damage to the inner joint.
FAQ_Q12	The wheels wobble when I make a turn. What's the problem?
FAA_A12	The most likely cause is a broken bearing cage due to excessive torque load. This is typically an outboard joint problem.
