DmaxStore has the solution.\u003cbr\u003eThis Extended Travel CV Axle Assembly is built to handle the real-world abuse Duramax owners put their trucks through, especially leveled and lifted applications. With up to 47° of articulation compared to the factory axle’s ~23°, this axle dramatically reduces bind, stress, and premature failure at increased ride heights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe thermoplastic elastomer boots provide superior flex-fatigue resistance, excellent tear strength, improved water sealing, and better performance across extreme temperature ranges compared to traditional rubber boots. Internally, upgraded cages, races, and bearings ensure smooth, reliable operation even at maximum articulation—where most factory and aftermarket axles fail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike competitors that rely on 3-ball designs, this axle utilizes an 8-ball CV joint, distributing load more evenly for increased strength, durability, and long-term reliability. Backed by a Lifetime Warranty, this axle is designed to perform and last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended Travel Design\u003c\/strong\u003e - Allows significantly more plunge and suspension travel than OE axles, reducing bind in leveled and lifted set ups.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigher Articulation Capability\u003c\/strong\u003e - Nearly doubles the factory articulation, minimizing CV joint stress and failure at increased ride height.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThermoplastic Elastomer CV Boots\u003c\/strong\u003e - Superior resistance to tearing, cracking, water intrusion, and temperature related degradation compared to standard rubber boots.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUpgraded Cages, Races \u0026amp; Bearings\u003c\/strong\u003e - Engineered for smooth operation and durability at extreme articulation angles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e8-Ball CV Joint Design\u003c\/strong\u003e - Distributes load across more contact points than the factory style 3 bearing joints for increased strength and longevity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLifetime Replacement Warranty\u003c\/strong\u003e - Covered for the original purchaser.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x CV axle shaft for left or right side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x CV axle nut washer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x CV axle nut, self locking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits both (driver\/passenger) sides \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Axles Shafts are thicker than stock, this may cause clearance issues on trucks with aftermarket Coilover Shock Lift Kits.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCV Axle Spacers: You will still need to run them if your truck currently has them installed.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYou will need a \u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e34mm Socket\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e for CV axle nut removal.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline\"\u003eInstall Instructions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReplaces Part#\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eGM 25856606\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDmaxStore CV axles come with a Lifetime warranty to the original purchaser.
