Jeep Liberty Front Passenger CV Axle vs TRQ Front Passenger CV Axle Assembly

Both are front passenger CV axles for the 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty 3.7L 4x4, and their key dimensions match: 22.78 in compressed length, 29 inboard splines, 27 outboard splines, M24 x 2.0 axle nut. The TRQ is a new aftermarket assembly, so it comes with fresh joints, boots and grease and a manufacturer warranty. The OEM part is a used original unit pulled from a donor vehicle, which suits owners who want factory fit and a matching part number. For most shoppers the new TRQ is the safer buy; the used OEM makes sense only if you specifically want a factory part and can inspect it.

• Choose the used OEM axle if you want a factory Jeep part with the original part number and can check the boots, joints and splines before installing.
• Choose the TRQ axle if you want a new, fully assembled unit with fresh joints and boots and a manufacturer warranty behind it.
