Axle Assembly – GM (26018518)

Axle Assembly transfers drive across a moving joint. Two shafts that look alike can differ in length by enough to bottom out in the joint, so the measurement matters more than the model year.

Replace the Axle when there is rotational play at a joint, when the shaft is bent, or when a seal surface is grooved past the point of sealing. Measure the installed length against the specification.

The Axle in this listing carries part number 26018518 and sits in the Axle Assemblies category. The number stamped on the original part is the only reliable cross-reference.

This is genuine GM stock, supplied for the Axle with the manufacturer number intact so the reference on the box matches the catalogue.

Supplied as an assembly rather than as an individual component, so check that you need the whole item before ordering.
