About the CV Drive Shaft | Rear | 4-6 Inch Lift | Jeep Wrangler TJ 4WD…

Lifted Driveline Performance: Upgrade your Jeep TJ Wrangler's driveline with this heavy-duty CV Double Cardan rear driveshaft. Recommended for TJ models equipped with 4 to 6 inches of suspension lift, this driveshaft helps correct increased driveline angles caused by lifting your Jeep. The double cardan design helps reduce common driveline vibrations for smoother operation, improved drivability, and greater confidence both on the road and on the trail.

Heavy-Duty Strength and Reliability: Built for demanding off-road use, this rear driveshaft features premium CV joints, durable Brute Force Red seals, and reinforced construction for long-lasting performance. With shaft strength rated up to twice as strong as the factory-equipped driveshaft, this upgrade is designed to handle larger tires, aggressive terrain, and the added stress of lifted applications while delivering smooth, consistent power transfer.

Protects Critical Drivetrain Components: By improving driveline geometry and reducing vibration, this CV driveshaft helps minimize stress on the rear output shaft and other key drivetrain components. This added protection helps prevent premature wear or failure, making it an ideal upgrade for lifted TJ owners looking for dependable performance and long-term durability.

Backed by Rough Country: When you choose Rough Country, you're investing in proven performance and dependable protection. This rear CV driveshaft is backed by Rough Country's 3-year warranty, giving you added confidence that your driveline upgrade is protected on and off the road.
