Product Details

Built for driveline service, Dorman 966-521 replaces the original rear drive shaft assembly with a direct-fit design that simplifies repair work. The steel shaft measures 92.75 inches in drive shaft length and uses bolt-on ends for straightforward installation. Its standard replacement grade and complete assembly format make it a practical solution when the original shaft is worn, damaged, or out of balance. This part cross-references Ford OE numbers F81Z4R602HS and F81Z4R602HSE for the same application. For Ford F-350 Super Duty rear driveline service, 966-521 provides the key components needed in one assembled unit.

Common Problems It Can Solve

  • Vibration caused by an out-of-balance drive shaft
  • Noise from worn universal joints or CV joints
  • Driveline clunk from damaged yokes or shaft wear
  • Service issues from a bent, corroded, or fatigued shaft
  • Fitment problems when the original assembly is no longer serviceable

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 1999-2000 Ford F-350 Super Duty, rear, with single rear wheel (SRW). Verify compressed length, flange style, and slip travel before installation.

Use the existing vehicle specifications to confirm application details before replacing the shaft.
