Detailed Description

This Dorman drive shaft, part number 938-139, is built for front driveline replacement on Jeep vehicles that require a direct-fit assembly. It is a steel drive shaft with regular grade construction, and the adjustable overall length helps support proper fitment across the listed Jeep Grand Cherokee, Cherokee, Comanche, and Wagoneer applications. For buyers searching for a Jeep Grand Cherokee front drive shaft or a Jeep Cherokee front drive shaft replacement, Dorman 938-139 provides a complete assembly approach rather than rebuilding worn components individually.

This part cross-references Cardone Reman 65-9781 for the same application.

• Fitment issues from a damaged or non-adjustable replacement shaft

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s front driveline configuration before installation, especially on 1999-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee models with 3 U-joints and a double Cardan at the transfer case. Confirm shaft length, transfer case interface, and axle-side connection against the removed part before final installation. Because this is a complete assembly, inspect related driveline mounts and mating components for wear during replacement.
