Honda 44305-S0X-A52 Driveshaft Assembly, Passenger Side

You can Select Your Vehicle to check if 44305-S0X-A52 fits your vehicle.

Drive is delivered from the transaxle to the wheels by means of two axle shafts, of which one end fits onto the side gears of the differential by means of splines. The axle shafts can be withdrawn for renewal of the oil seals, and the outer ends are splined to the front hubs and locked by usually a large nut. Every axle shaft assembly is made up of an inner and outer CV joint linked by an axle shaft, with the inner ends containing a tripod joint that permits angular, as well as axial movement; it is also designed to allow the inner CV joints to slide outwards, if the axle shaft adjusts with wheel movement. The outer CV joints have a ball-and-cage structure through which angular motion is possible, but not the axial type. Proper inspection of the boots to look for the damage and seeping of lubricant is key since torn boots will harm the CV joint. It is generally necessary to pull the axle shaft to replace the boot, but some automotive socket stores have 'split' type boots for those who do not wish to pull the axle shaft. However, it is recommended that the axle shaft be momentarily withdrawn and the boots of the CV joint opened to check that they are clear of offending materials that may catalyse wear. Some of these signs you will be seeing when your CV joints are worn or damaged include; you find lubricant on the CV joint, getting a clicking sound when making corners, there is a sound like a clunk when you speed up after slowing down, the car's steering vibrates at high speeds. To confirm wear, hold one axle at its end opposite the CV joint, and the other at the related CV joint housing, while rotating the axle in each direction-think of it as 'windshield wiper' like motion where you see play or loose splines, or hopelessly sloppy CV joints. The axle shafts should be also checked for cracks, dents and distortion.

Set the parking brake and remove the wheel cover or hubcap.
