Sold the wrong cv axle


Recommended Posts

I bought a cv axle at Napa for my 1988gl wagon with a 5-speed Dr. The axle I got looked exactly right, but the inner end of the axle where it slides onto the transmission shaft is slightly too large to engage the splines. What did I buy by mistake, and how do I get the parts store to sell me the right one?

Sounds like you got a 25 spline turbo axle. Next time you get an axle count to make sure it has 23 splines on the inside. 

 

I usually just buy parts for a 90 loyale. There are fewer options in those years and you're more likely to get the right parts.
