Detailed Description

The Cardone Driveshaft / Prop Shaft line focuses on OE-style replacement parts engineered from extensive testing and material analysis. Part number 65-9528 is designed for rear applications on 2001-2003 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 and 2001-2003 GMC Sierra 2500 models that use a 68-3/4 in. long driveshaft. The steel tube construction, balanced assembly, and lubricated slip yokes support smooth power transfer and consistent driveline performance. This part cross-references Chevrolet and GMC OE numbers 15024402 and 15109388 for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

  • Driveline vibration at highway or load-carrying speeds
  • Noise caused by worn or out-of-balance prop shaft components
  • Premature wear related to slip yoke movement
  • Loss of smooth power transfer through the rear driveline
  • Replacement needs after shaft damage or corrosion

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the measurement before ordering: this shaft is measured from the end of the input shaft to the center of the U-joint.

Compare tubing diameter and overall length to the original unit before installation.
