Detailed Description

This Dorman drive shaft assembly is built for rear-position replacement on 2004-2012 Chevrolet Colorado and 2004-2012 GMC Canyon models.

What It Helps Fix

  • Vibration from a worn or out-of-balance rear driveshaft
  • Clunking or driveline noise from worn joints
  • Loss of driveline smoothness under acceleration
  • Damage from corrosion, impact, or shaft wear
  • Service issues caused by failed CV joints or universal joints

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2004-2012 Chevrolet Colorado, rear, and 2004-2012 GMC Canyon, rear. Verify rear driveline measurements and vehicle configuration before installation. Because this assembly is not adjustable, correct application matching is important. Inspect related driveline components, mounting points, and seals during replacement to help ensure proper operation.

Quality Assurance
