Deliver torque to the rear axle with the Dorman drive shaft 986-955, a rear 2-piece steel driveshaft assembly from the Dorman OE Solutions line. It is a direct-fit 2015-2020 Dodge Charger drive shaft. It arrives fully assembled and dynamically pre-balanced, so it is ready to install. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
The rear driveshaft is the rotating link that carries torque back to the rear axle. The joints at each end let it flex as the suspension moves. Signs a rear drive shaft may need replacing include vibration felt through the floor at speed, a clunk when shifting into drive or reverse, or squeaking and clicking from worn joints. Diagnose the cause first, because other drivetrain parts can produce similar symptoms.

What comes in the box?

What is DOM tubing and why does it matter?
Drawn over mandrel (DOM) seamless steel tubing offers superior concentricity, uniform wall thickness, and more torsional strength and dent resistance than standard welded steel.
Does the driveshaft need to be balanced before installation?
It arrives dynamically pre-balanced and fully assembled. Follow the vehicle service information for the install procedure, the correct fasteners and whether the originals may be reused.
What are signs a rear driveshaft may need replacing?
Common signs include vibration at speed, a clunk when shifting into gear, or squeaking and clicking from worn joints. Other drivetrain parts can cause these too, so diagnose the cause before replacing.
