Toyota Repair: CV axel, cv axle, cv boot


Question
I have a 92-Camry-4cyl-5S-FE with manual trans., the right outer CV boot is torn and make noise, I am trying to find out what CV axle I need to get? the manual tells that 5S-FE have a tripod type CV axle but I have searched for this and no auto store have them? Do you know the parts number? I found one with part number 7452 I do not know if that is the Toyota number.

Answer
There are two types of axles for this model, look for a small lable on the outer CV joint see if it has the letters GNK, if not it's the other type that's not GNK, call the toyota parts department and give them the VIN# and whether it's GNK or not and they can give you the factory part number which the autoparts store can then use to cross reference, you may also want to get a qoute for a toyota axle , the cost won't be that much different
