I recently installed the Detroit Axle 4WD Front CV Axles on my Chevy Silverado 1500, and so far, I’m very impressed. These axles are a great direct-fit replacement at a fraction of the cost of OEM parts. Pros: ✔ Perfect Fit: Installation was straightforward, and the axles fit just like the factory originals. No modifications or extra parts were needed. ✔ Durable Build Quality: The materials feel solid, and the boots seem thick and well-sealed to prevent premature wear. ✔ Smooth Performance: No vibrations or clicking noises—just smooth, quiet operation, even under load. ✔ Great Value for the Price: Compared to dealership or name-brand replacements, these axles provide excellent performance for a much lower cost. Cons: ➖ Included Clamps Could Be Tighter: The axle boot clamps work fine, but I added a couple of zip ties for extra peace of mind. Overall, Detroit Axle delivers a solid, affordable alternative to OEM CV axles. If you’re looking for a reliable replacement without breaking the bank, these are definitely worth considering. Would buy again! Let me know if you’d like any tweaks!

Lasted less than 9 months and completely failed at the outer hub. Inside blew apart and even cracked the cv housing. Seems like it would have lasted longer seeing that it came with a 10 yr warranty. So I called Detroit Axle to get another coming under warranty. No problem, but it was going to cost over $38 in shipping and I only paid $76.38 shipped to my door! That tells me it's about a $38 part to start with. Went to local parts store and got another with lifetime warranty and no expensive shipping if it fails.

good product but the axle nut was not included. nor was it the same thread size, it was a good thing that I had A nut that would work.

“Received product quickly, and packaged very well (in a box) protecting spline and boots. Fitment was perfect on my 2008 Z71 Tahoe and appears to be good quality. At this time, I highly recommend Detroit. I will share a couple of things, though not a big deal at the moment and probably common within the industry. I have a concern with the "inner" boots, for they collapsed when installed. During factory assembly, the axle/inner bearing was fully "retracted" while the boot was installed and clamped to the "axle". Given the boot has a great "seal", it began to collapse due to the "vacuum" created as the axle is extended to secure the axle nut. I thought it would relax soon but two weeks later there is no change. I may have to remove and ask for two new "boot to axle" clamps, allowing the boot to relax and then re-clamp. I'm afraid if I do nothing, the boot will prematurely fail compromising the bearing. The axle clamp is extremely tight and sliding a "pick" or something very small between the boot and axle may be possible to relieve the pressure (very carefully of course to avoid damage to the boot/seal). If it does work, I can see having to leave the instrument in place for a little while - maybe overnight for the pressure to fully "equalize". Just a thought.... Also be prepared to have a larger socket for the new axle nut supplied for it is "beefy" compared to OEM. One can use the nut off the old axle, but most likely it has been removed a number of times to replace previously failed boots and wouldn't be recommended..... Again, the axle appears to be great quality and wouldn't hesitate to buy again.” Update - well, a year and a half later and less than 5,000 miles - an axle boot has failed. Very disappointed an axle boot last no longer than this - especially given vehicle has not been “off road”.

I have always been happy with Detroit Axle products. OEM quality and fit. These axles (4WD Tahoe) are no exception. They have been trouble free for 5 years and close to 90,000 miles. A tear developed on one of the boots, which is pretty common for CV axles. One call to Detroit Axle, and they shipped a replacement. So, not only good products, but they honor their warranty as advertised. Thank you Detroit Axle.
