- Simplifies repair: serviceable U-joints replace the hard-to-service staked design.
- All-new manufacturing: made 100% new, so there is no core charge or core return to deal with.
- Quality engineering: designed in the United States and backed by Dorman's decades of automotive aftermarket experience.
A front drive shaft carries driving torque toward the front axle, and its U-joints flex as the driveline moves. Signs that a drive shaft may need replacing include vibration that builds with speed, a clunk when shifting into gear, or squeaking or clicking from worn U-joints. Tires, mounts and other driveline parts can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before you replace the shaft.
