TRQ CV Axle Shafts Outer Front Pair Set Compatible with Malibu Alero Aura G6 2.4 3.5 AT

Swapped these into my 2015 Audi A5 Quattro and everything fit perfectly. No modifications needed, no weird noises, and the ride feels smooth again.So far, they’ve held up great through daily driving and a couple long highway trips (10,000+ miles) Way cheaper than OEM and honestly just as solid.If you’re comfortable doing your own axle swap, these are a great option.

My dad's a machinist and I grew up in his shop. I've worked in fabrication, assembly, and quality control. I've personally replaced a handful of CV joint sets on various vehicles over the years, and always with automotive store bought parts. Auto parts store products carried a premium, but the quality was reliable.This was my first attempt purchasing from this company (without the middle man) and I thought it risky. My fears turned out to be unfounded.The axle assemblies are machined well and I can tell quality manufacturing and talented assembly went into the finished product. The type of steel and heat treating is correct, the splines are tight tolerance with no wiggle. The spider gear doesn't drag and it's nice and tight; same with the races & housing on the other end. The boots are surprisingly thick and a good grade of rubber. The clamping straps were even applied with care.I'm impressed, and I'm not impressed often. The ONLY criticism I could come up with is that the tool marks weren't polished off all of the steel, but that's cosmetic and would only matter on a show car, maybe not even then.It's obvious from the way these axles feel that care was taken to ensure a high quality product was shipped out. The boot clamp tabs were even neatly folded over. The entire axle was lightly oiled and placed in a thick mil plastic bag, then supported with foam braces, and placed in double thick cardboard boxes. There were instructions included, which would help a novice.The only thing better about my OEM axles is that they have rubber vibration dampers on the shaft, which the replacements don't have; I doubt I'd be able to notice the difference though. The car drives like butter compared to original axles.For the price, I think I got a bargain with this quality.I'm not sure what to do with my cores... Parts shops used to want them in exchange...

Great quality and price . No issues at all. Would recommend TRQ 100%

Bought two new CV axles from them for my 05 (05-2010) Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4x4. On said vehicle I was rebuilding the entire front anew, which included these axles.Built the passengers side first, took a good day and a half of a work day.Was in no hurry to jump on drivers side immediately; waited just over a week.After said time, lifted and jack stands in place…began the lengthy disassemble of drivers side.Some ten steps later, made it to where needed to hammer out old cv axle. Wasn’t easy, tried many different angles to get a good solid hit on it.During one of those angles under the rig, I noticed grease splatter in numerous locations of the passenger side.Discovered the issue was the inner boot of the new TRQ (not) cv axle.Was quite bummed:(Contacted the company and included pictures and my purchase invoice.Was replied to promptly, that was good.Their compensation was that they sent me two new cv axles, that was kinda ok seeing how I’d not even installed the second one; yet it’s also awful…as the amount of work to redo it is not the most fun.I was told “no need to send the faulty part back”.Installed the drivers side, got a good right alignment on it and had the Jeep feeling good.Had driven it perhaps five different days since repair.Today, I was under the Jeep in order to put some new grease nipple inserts into a couple ball joints; and:(discovered now the drivers side outer boot split and spewing grease:(Unfortunately am unable to give a 0 star rating here.Do not buy this part from them for an 05-2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee.Untrustworthy, unreliable and poor quality.

Well packaged. Perfect fit. Easy install took about 15 minutes.Make it easy 1, turn the steering wheel right before jacking up the car.Make it easy 2, the axle nut is 36mm get a chrome 6 point socket. The impact socket won't fit into the hub. The rental tool sockets don't fit. I bought an impact socket and learned so I ran my grinder around the bottom inch or so you won't need to remove much maybe 2mm worked fine.Make it easy 3, check the axle nut there are 2 types the thin collared one that gets bent with a punch needs a torque wrench that goes to 244ftlbs. The other nut torques to 37ftlbs first pass then another 60° second pass.Make it easy 4, crawl under and look at the spot where the axle enters the transmission so you know what a fully seated axle looks like then put a tray under it in cast some fluid leaks outUn clip the brake and ABS lines. Remove the 2 bolts in the bottom of the strut. The bolt is knurled so put the socket on the nut. Back the nut off to the end of the bolt to protect the threads and tap the bolt out the other side. Push the axle through and swing the knuckle assembly to the side and hang it with a wire to protect the hose and ABS. Pop the axle out with a pry bar "NOT LEVERAGED AGAINST THE TRANSMISSION HOUSING" pull the axle out and slide the new one in. Face the split ring gap on transmission side with the gap up. Give it a tap with a rubber mallet or a hammer and a block of wood. Look underneath to be sure it's seated. Put everything back where you found it. Lower strut bolts torque to 82ftlbs.Lug nuts with factory wheels 100ftlbs.Have fun

The fit is great but I now have a little acceleration shudder (drives smooth once up to speed). I made sure it was installed all the way in, so I'm not sure what the issue is. For the price I can't complain.
