Keep power moving to the rear wheels with this Dorman drive shaft, part number 936-900. It is a rear 2-piece steel driveshaft assembly and a direct-fit replacement for the 2001-2004 Subaru Outback, 1996-1999 Subaru Legacy and 2003-2006 Subaru Baja. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine and trim details.
On specific vehicles, the original drive shafts use permanently staked universal joints, which makes them hard to service. This Dorman OE FIX rear drive shaft has serviceable U-joints, so later maintenance is simpler.
A drive shaft carries torque from the drivetrain back to the rear differential. Signs that it may need replacing include vibration that grows with road speed, a clunk when shifting into gear or pulling away, and squeaking or play at the U-joints. These symptoms can have other causes, so diagnose the problem before replacing this Dorman OE Solutions drive shaft.
