Grand Cherokee 231 or 242 Rear

OEM Type Drive Shaft

We can build a new stock type drive shaft for your Cherokee for $199. If you have substantial lift and want the smoothest drive shaft, we would suggest one of the Slip Yoke Eliminator (SYE) kits along with a double cardan (CV) drive shaft.

You may need to identify which transfer case you have. This is easily done by looking at the ID tag on the back of the transfer case.

With this system you should be able to keep your transfer case at stock height but you need to be sure to pitch your differential so the pinion points directly at the out-put of the transfer case to maintain minimal joint angle at the differential end.

If you will measure the slope of the drive shaft and the slope of the pinion, we can calculate any adjustment that may be needed. With leaf spring suspension, this is easily corrected with shims placed between the springs and spring perch. If you have coil springs, the adjustment is made with either cam bolts or adjustable control arms.

We have a number of options available that range from $370 to $600 as a complete package including the drive shaft. Please click here and take a moment to explore our SYE options.

If you want the stock type drive shafts, we need the length and "E"  dimensions (at the differential end):
