Rough Country 5073.1 Details

This double cardan style CV driveshaft is necessary for Jeep JK models equipped with 3.5 - 6 inch short arm suspension lifts or 2.5 - 6 inch long arm suspension lifts. It features a replacement flange for the differential pinions as opposed to using an adapter flange. These flanges are machined from solid billet steel. They are designed to accept standard "off the shelf" mating flanges. If these flanges ever break, you at least stand a chance of getting a replacement part from almost any drive line shop. This also nets a longer drive shaft with the center of the universal joint closer to the pinion bearing.

Features

  • Collapsed Measurment: 41.25 inches
  • Extended Measurment: 44.75 inches
  • Eliminates contact between the stock drive shaft and oil pan on automatic transmission models.
  • After lifting your Jeep JK Wrangler a CV (Double Cardan) drive shaft is a good choice to eliminate vibration issues and provide the longest lasting drive shaft.
  • Includes better quality CV joints.
  • Shaft strength is twice as strong as the factory equipped drive shaft.
  • Grease fittings are out of the way of the transmission oil pan meaning you get grease to the joints that need it and not all over the botom of your Jeep.

Warranty Guard

This free protection supplements your manufacturer's warranty, guaranteeing that if you are denied repair due to having a Warranty Guard protected product on your vehicle, then Rough Country will foot the bill for your repair! For up to 5 years / 100K miles / or until your manufacturer's warranty ends, if there is a failure of a factory warranty-covered part due to installation of a Rough Country suspension product, Rough Country will cover the repairs at a factory authorized shop - all you pay is a $100 deductible!

These items are covered under a separate Limited Warranty along with other non-suspension items listed above. Replacements for non-defective items broken during off-road use may incur shipping charges.
