Buying a used axle shaft: what to check

  1. Inspect CV boots for cracks. A torn boot means the joint has likely ingested grit.
  2. Confirm ABS ring compatibility with your sensor setup.
  3. Left and right shafts usually differ in length, so verify the side.
  4. Spin the joints through full articulation and listen for clicking.
