CV Axle Issues on Vehicles with Altered/Lifted Suspsensions

Lifting a vehicle changes suspension geometry and increases the operating angles of its CV axles. These changes can place additional stress on CV joints and boots, potentially contributing to premature wear and component failure.

This TrakMotive technical bulletin explains how increased CV axle angles affect joint operation and why prolonged contact between CV boot bellows can generate excessive heat and accelerate deterioration.

Download the bulletin for a visual explanation of CV axle operating angles, the effects of altered suspension geometry, and important considerations for lifted vehicle applications.
