Product Overview
A front shaft with worn universal joints, a dented tube, loose slip section, or damaged yoke can vibrate, clunk, or fail to transfer power in four-wheel drive. This complete assembly offers a replacement route when repair or balancing of the original is no longer practical.
Super Duty driveshaft length and yokes vary with wheelbase, transmission, transfer case, axle, and build date. Measure the collapsed length and compare every connection before ordering.
This is a high-quality aftermarket replacement or service part and is not manufactured or supplied by the original equipment brand. The names below identify compatible applications only.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can a bad front driveshaft vibrate even in two-wheel drive? A: On some 4WD layouts the shaft still rotates, so worn joints or imbalance can be felt even when 4WD is not engaged.
Q: Why is measuring important? A: Ford used different lengths and connection styles across Super Duty configurations.
Q: Should I replace the transfer-case seal at the same time? A: Inspect it. A worn yoke or damaged seal can leak after the new shaft is installed.
