Hey all,

I have been trying to find a correct FR CV Shaft for my 2012 KK. Every one I have tried from local stores has been wrong. Does anyone have a part number for a aftermarket cv shaft? I don't want to pay $350+ for one from the dealer.



Thanks in advance

I don’t know why but almost all of the remanufactured cv shafts from the typical auto parts stores are too short. NAPA remanufactured seems to be a good one and has come highly recommended on the forums. Replace the intermediate shaft at the same time if the splines look worn out or damaged.

A few years ago when I needed a new right side cv and intermediate shaft, NAPA didn’t have any remans in stock. As an alternative I located a low mileage junkyard KK on http://www.car-part.com and got the right side cv and intermediate shaft sent to me for $70. The particular KK I sourced it from had been rear ended and totaled but the front end was fine. That was 80,000 miles ago and it is still going strong.
