JK Rear Drive Shaft We custom build all drive shafts to order and, although we can build some drive shafts by application it is certainly best to take a measurement so the drive shaft is built to fit. The length measurement can be taken with or without the stock drive shaft installed. Measurement is best taken with the vehicle parked on flat ground at normal ride height. Measure from approximately center height (the 3 or 9 0’clock positions) for the best measurement.   Need help deciding which drive shaft is right for you?

If you have one of these other Jeep models, just look at your stock shaft first to make sure it matches what we show below. The drive shafts come painted Black. We consider this to be the best design...

We can build a new stock type drive shaft for your Cherokee. We will need the length measurement taken from the vehicle with the drive shaft removed and the vehicle resting on the ground. We also need to verify U-joint size at the differential end. If you have substantial lift and want the smoothest drive shaft, we suggest one of the Slip Yoke Eliminator (SYE) kits along with a double cardan (CV) drive shaft.
