RockAuto- 4x4 front drive shaft, '81 K20 -Rock Auto

[JD Miller]

It is high quality, not a cheesy china POS.

Guy I know that has a drive shaft shop in Ca does alot of race car/boat and polished aluminum show car drive shafts and he wanted $400+ just to replace the slip yoke and spline and one u-joint on new slip yoke and balance. Rebuilding the double cardan would be more $$
So this Dorman shaft was a good deal

Damn this Dorman is 2 1/2" diameter tube. My original shaft is 2" and Rock Auto Dorman description says its a 2" also. Part number on box is correct but its a 2 1/2 " shaft

Anybody running a 2 1/2" shaft on a turbo 400 auto square body

Im going to go take other measurement, bolt pattern, other diameters

Nope , frickin Cardon CV is 4" diameter, My original is 3 1/2" diameter. The Dorman will not clear the cross member for the trans mount. Too Big

Original shaft tube is 2" dia , Dorman is 2 1/2" dia

Dormans specs say 2" diameter. I got 2 1/2" and the cardan CV is larger too

Maybe its package wrong... My box dorman sticker 938-192 part number is correct on the box

Dorman definitely is a mixed bag though, I have generally had decent luck with their products, I know from others they definitely have some clinkers.

Hopefully rock auto will work with you on the return. I had ordered a set of u joint u bolts, got sent a set of outer axle bearings and seals for a 10 bolt car rear. Did the online return/problem prompt, answered the questions. Next day I get an email the replacement shipped. No complaints with the process.

OK, I guess a retraction is called for.
