Replacement Details

This axle shaft is intended for Ford E-350 Super Duty, Ford E-250, and Ford E-Series rear axle service where the original shaft has failed or the bearing and seal area needs renewal. The 34.13-inch length, 35 splines, and solid shaft construction match the listed applications, and the included bearing and seal support a more complete repair. This part cross-references Ford service numbers 75344-2XR and F5UZ4234B for the same application.

Common Repair Reasons

• Broken or damaged rear axle shaft
• Noise from worn axle bearing or seal area
• Wheel end leakage at the axle housing
• Loss of driveline integrity at the rear left axle position
• Need for a direct replacement on select Ford E-Series models

Installation Notes

Verify rear left fitment by axle configuration, ring gear size, and the absence of Electronic or Roll Stability Control before installation. Confirm spline count, shaft length, and wheel lug configuration against the original part. Inspect the axle housing, bearing seat, and seal surface during service to help ensure proper assembly.
