I installed two new CV axels on my 95 maxima auto. After I installed the two CV axles everything went well. Today after about one block of driving the wheels no longer engage. The RPM's are increasing but the wheels no not respond. Attached is a video of my car parked on the side of a residential road. The street is slight slanted. The video shows my car on starting in "Parked":

Any ideas? What I dont understand is that both wheels do not turn. I could understand one not spinning but both?

It is insanely hot at the moment and can not work on the car on the side of the street. Will need to pull it to my house then investigate. Till then any ideas?

 

Did both your axles pop out?

 

Unless you have an LSD you only have to pop one axle out to lose all power to the wheels. Drivers side was not fully seated and popped out.

 

It sure does sound and feel like at least one axel popped out. Once I get the car off the street this will be the first thing I check.

thanks


EDIT:

It looks like autozone gave me the wrong axle.

My car has ABS so the above axle will not work.


Looks like I need the 9721 and not the 9721N.




Will update this thread later today with the results.



EDIT 2:

The driver side axle popped out



I replaced it at autozone and installed it everything is now good to go.

PS: Stupid autozone

 

see, napa sold me the wrong axle as well being as that i have a non-lsd tranny and abs. stupid napa

 

Motherfuggers Glad its fixed.
