• Description:

  This is the genuine Ford N1MZ-3A427-F front axle shaft (CV halfshaft) for the driver (left hand inner) side of the 20-25 Ford Explorer and Police Interceptor Utility models equipped with all-wheel drive and corrosion protection package. Per the Ford parts catalog, the Ford catalog Parts, and Group 1 Auto Parts dealer catalogs, the halfshaft delivers drive torque from the front differential output to the driver side wheel hub via inner tripod-style CV joint and outer ball-style CV joint connected by the intermediate shaft section. The unit includes the OEM corrosion protection coating that resists road salt exposure on northern-climate fleet vehicles, which is particularly important for police interceptor service. Common failure modes include torn CV boots allowing grease loss and contamination ingress (typically the outer boot fails first due to wider articulation range during steering), CV joint clicking on turns indicating joint wear, vibration through the steering wheel at speed indicating shaft imbalance, and shaft splined end wear. Replacement requires removing the wheel, brake caliper and rotor, disconnecting the lower ball joint or strut, and pulling the outer end out of the wheel hub with the appropriate puller. Always verify wheel hub bearing condition during halfshaft service since these are common companion failures. This is the genuine Ford service part backed by the OEM warranty.
