This video shows you how to install one in your 2012-2020 Ford Focus. A CV axle has flexible joints. Often, these joints wear out, or seize from contaminants due to the protective boot tearing open. A worn joint is prone to breakage, or other hazards. If your vehicle needs a new CV axle, install a quality TRQ axle that is engineered to your vehicle’s specifications.

This process should be similar on the following vehicles:
2012 Ford Focus
2013 Ford Focus
2014 Ford Focus
2015 Ford Focus

"Pops right out" yeah.... that's not happening with mine lmao

[dknot]

Very helpful. Swapped out the part in around 30 minutes. The old part was siezed in the hub and took several minutes to remove, but once it was out it was all smooth.

[Jt-elhj]

Thanks, no messing around, everything I need to know.

[rookiemvp]

"but it did break free" Proceeds to whale on it with a metal hammer lmao

[bongocatsupreme]

bro said rubber mallet, that was not a rubber mallet LOL

[krimoc]

Does this repair apply to a 2016 Ford Focus ST, passenger side. Thank you

[davidcaira]

Are both output shaft seals the same on both sides? I have a 2016 focus st and would like to know which ones I need to get. Maybe send a link? Thank you!

No way the axle just pops out like that with the pry bar. Anyone knows the actual way to remove the axle from the transmission? I have spent hours on this with not luck!

[abrahamanham]

Did you have to drain the transmission fluid?

[ExUNDDevilDog]

If you plan to reuse the axles how do you remove them without hammering on them?

[No-vyje]

I have a 2014 Manny SE with hatchback.

Front right has to be shot. Ting ting here and there over any bump.

[angelcoronado]

Will this fit on a focus st?? Mines going bad I do have a manual transmission

[issa_xgen]

Do you not have to remove the ABS sensor?

[Harrell]

It doesn't need the little metal clip does it?

[armandoavila]

Well fuck the mechanic charging me 1200 for that . I’m a do it on my own

[willparker]

Looks like this would work for a Ford transit connect (mine’s a 2013)

[connor]

No one else gonna mention how the video is just black after it ends

This guy is genuinely awful. So many mistakes, oversights, shortcuts. Sloppy work.
