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. Shaft will require a CV compatible yoke for transfer case and may require axle shims. 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. 

Key product features

THE BEST FOR A REASON

I have tried other makes in the past but Tom Woods is simply the best. Zero vibration in my 4" lifted CJ5 which uses a very short shaft. The fit finish and quality is all top notch. Don't try to save a buck on a cheap brand just go this route and be done with it. I can't believe how fast they built and shipped this to me also. Thanks Tom Woods!!!

Cj double cardan

I received my drive shaft in less than a week. It fit perfectly and is a really nice product. Our CJ has a 6” lift and has no vibration. I highly recommend Tom Woods products!

CJ5 double cardan rear driveshaft

The double cardan shaft fixed the bad vibration in my 75 CJ5 with a 3" lift. Extremely fast build/ship time and the staff was very friendly and answered all my questions.

CJ7 double cardan rear driveshaft

The driveshaft shipped fast and looks amazing. I have not yet been able to install it due to my own failure. I didn't order the output shaft, from the Dana 20, that is needed for the double cardan. For some reason I assumed it came with it, but that was my fault for not seeing that it didn't. Will have to save up another $75 and order the output shaft. Again the driveshaft looks amazing, even if I need to order more parts.

Fantastic!!!

First off, I never leave reviews unless something is truly amazing. I have an 81 CJ5 and have been fighting terrible vibrations since I bought it. Broken U Joints, failed transfer case drop spacers, it was extremely frustrating. I found this double cardan driveshaft and gave Tom Woods Driveshaft a call. They were extremely cordial and helped me through a few small questions that I had. They had the driveshaft in the mail the next day. It arrived about two hours ago and I immediately installed it. ZERO vibrations. ZERO. My CJ5 drives and rides like a dream even with a SOA lift. It's unbelievable how well it worked. If you're on the fence about it, or thinking about trying cheaper options DONT. Take a simple measurement and buy the driveshaft. I only wish I would've bought it at the beginning of summer so I could've enjoyed it more.
