Detailed Description

Cardone 65-1056 is a remanufactured front drive shaft designed for 2016-2019 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD and Silverado 3500 HD, as well as 2016-2019 GMC Sierra 2500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD models. This prop shaft uses a steel tube, splined connection, universal joint end, and slip yoke configuration to match the original driveline layout for these HD truck applications. The assembly is pre-greased, phased, and dynamically balanced to help maintain smooth operation across a wide range of road and load conditions.

As part of the Cardone remanufactured driveshaft / prop shaft line, 65-1056 is produced with strict quality processes and tested critical components. The design review process may include upgrades over the original part where applicable, with the goal of improving durability while preserving correct fit and function. This part cross-references GM OE numbers 23396439 and 84927290 for the same application.

What This Driveshaft Helps Address

• Driveline vibration from an out-of-balance front prop shaft
• Noise or shudder during acceleration or load changes
• Wear-related driveline play from failed universal joints
• Loss of smooth power transfer in the front driveline
• Fitment issues caused by a damaged or incorrect-length shaft

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify compressed length, end types, and front-position fitment before installation. This shaft is phased and includes universal joints and a slip yoke, so driveline alignment should be checked carefully during replacement. Inspect mating components, mounting points, and related driveline hardware for wear or damage before returning the vehicle to service.

Quality Assurance

Cardone remanufactured prop shafts are tested for proper function and balanced dynamically to support vibration-free operation. The remanufacturing process includes inspection of critical components and design review for potential durability improvements. Product condition is new.
