Send driving torque to the rear axle with a Dorman drive shaft built from all-new components: the Dorman - OE Solutions 986-516 Rear 3-Piece Steel Driveshaft Assembly. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed 2014-2023 Jeep Cherokee applications. It arrives fully assembled and dynamically pre-balanced, so it is ready to go in without assembling or balancing the shaft yourself.

  • Ready to install: Delivered fully assembled and dynamically pre-balanced for a fast installation on the listed applications.
  • Premium shaft: Made from drawn over mandrel (DOM) seamless steel tubing. The tubing offers superior concentricity, uniform wall thickness, and more torsional strength and dent resistance than standard welded steel.
  • All-new construction: The tubing, yokes, CV joints and U-joints are all 100% new and designed to match original equipment performance.
  • Protective packaging: Ships in protective packaging so it reaches you in the same install-ready condition it was in when it left the manufacturing facility.

As a 3-piece rear driveshaft, this assembly replaces the complete shaft and its joints in one unit. Signs a driveshaft may need replacing include vibration that grows with speed, a clunk when shifting into gear, or squeaking or clicking from a joint. Other driveline parts can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
