Bought new cv axle from o Riley. Not remanufactured. Had a guy put it in for 50 in a local garage. On the way home I noticed the car vibrates on steering wheel very strong when around 60mph. Also road noise has gone up. On the way home she started to pull right strongly.
So did I get a dud or did the guy put it in wrong? |

well, im guessing when the axel was installed, they probably disconnected the knuckle to lower arm or knuckle to strut. that in itself can throw the alignment off.
however, a bad balanced axel can do this, unless they busted your wheal bearing when removing the old axle. because some axles get seized and seen some people hammer them off. i would take it to the alignment shop... they can tell you if its the suspension, if not, then the axle could be. -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years...
