If you’ve lifted your Jeep JK between 3.5 and 6 inches with a short arm setup or 2.5 to 6 inches using long arms, you’re going to want to check this out. This double cardan style CV driveshaft isn’t just a fancy upgrade; it’s a game-changer for your ride. I’ve had my fair share of vibrations after lifting, but this bad boy really helps smooth things out.

One of the first things you’ll notice is the replacement flange for the differential pinions. Instead of messing around with an adapter flange, this one is machined from solid billet steel, which means it’s tough and built to last. Plus, it’s designed to accept standard off-the-shelf mating flanges. If you ever find yourself in a pinch, you can easily grab a replacement part from most drive line shops. That’s a huge relief when you’re out on the trails.

When it comes to measurements, this driveshaft collapses down to 35.5 inches and extends to 38 inches, making it a perfect fit for your setup. It also keeps the center of the universal joint closer to the pinion bearing, which is a nice touch. No more worrying about your stock driveshaft making contact with the oil pan on automatic transmission models, either. And let’s not forget about those grease fittings—they’re strategically placed to avoid the transmission oil pan, so you can actually get grease to the joints without making a mess underneath your Jeep.

What’s more, it comes with Brute Force Red seals and better quality CV joints. I’ve found that the shaft strength is twice as strong as the factory driveshaft, which gives you peace of mind when you’re tackling tough terrain.
