Afternoon,

I noticed that my wife's car (1995 850 GLE, sedan, non-turbo, automatic) has this clicking sound (when she makes a turn), which is the cv boot has cracked and I have to replace the axel on the passenger side.

Someone told me that the axel on the passenger axel side is longer than the driver axel side. I checked around with some used parts store and they tell me its all the same. Can anyone confirm this to me? Or whats the difference between the passenger and driver axel for the 1995 850 Volvo?

Thanks

 

Passenger side alot longer and has a carrier bearing on it.

 

i just replaced the passenger side axle on my 93 850 glt. it is considerable longer than the driver side axle. its really not that difficult to do yourself, tech has posted step by stem instructions on how to do it in the 850 forum. i ordered both axles from fcp groton and only paid about $75 for each.
