February 9, 20224 yr The splines in one of my front hubs was stripped out when that happened to me a few years ago.
February 10, 20224 yr Stripped splines on a front hub or CV axle. Take off hub caps, if any, have someone watch the front wheel centers. Put in gear in front drive, if the nut spins, that's where the problem is. If both do not, then have to look at the axles to make sure they are not spinning on the transmission, but not turning the wheels. I've seen a number of threads over they years - if the big axle nut is not properly tight, the splines eventually strip out of the hub.
