Part Description
This Grade A rear drive shaft assembly was removed from a 2010 Dodge DPU25 crew cab pickup truck. The 2-piece driveshaft has been thoroughly inspected for wear, damage, and proper operation. All universal joints, slip yokes, and mounting hardware are in excellent working condition and ready for installation.
The rear drive shaft transfers power from the transmission to the rear differential in 4×4 pickup trucks. Common replacement reasons include worn universal joints causing vibration, damaged slip yokes from off-road use, or bent shafts from impact damage. A failing driveshaft can cause severe vibration, clunking noises during acceleration, or complete loss of rear wheel drive.
