CJ Rear Drive Shaft, Double Cardan
1310 series rear drive shaft for Jeep CJ. Double cardan type, also known as a CV. This is what you need if your Jeep is lifted and you are experiencing vibrations or other problems due to increased angles. Unless it has already been upgraded, you will need a new double cardan compatible yoke for the transfer case and may require axle shims. Dana 18 transfer cases require a 10 spline yoke. Dana 300 transfer cases require a 26 spline yoke. Dana 20 transfer cases could be either, if you have a Dana 20 transfer case you will need to count the number of splines on the output shaft or old yoke. Select which yoke you need in the dropdown menu on this page and it will be included with your order. This shaft is built using 1310 series joints which is the standard size for a CJ, if you have a non-stock transfer case, axle, or something else that may affect yoke/joint size it is a good idea to double check the size of your joints. A 1310 series joint is approximately 3 1/4 wide from end of cap to end of cap.
