Dorman 932-301 Front Driveshaft - CV at Transfer Case Drive Shaft CV Joint Compatible with Select Jeep Models

This CV (constant velocity) joint fits the rear end of the FRONT driveshaft (prop shaft) . (Front of transfer case) Our 2005 Jeep Liberty had been making a noise while moving. It sounded like a chain being dragged lightly across a bell and followed the vehicle speed. At one point, while in 4hi with snow on the road, it gave a terrible vibration for a few seconds. Shifting to 2wd made it go away. You can get underneath and grab the shaft (beware hot exhaust pipe) and check for play between the shaft and the joint. There is a rubber boot that degrades over time allowing water and grime into the joint causing friction. I had replaced the same joint maybe 2 years before with a Crown Automotive brand CV but it did not last. We use 4x4 MAYBE twice a year. The way the Libery is designed the front shaft spins 100% of the time, even in 2wd (one reason for Liberty's poor mileage). Although there is no stress on the CV in 2wd it still wears. It IS safe to remove the front driveshaft and drive in 2wd so I did that until I could get the part. The old Crown replacement CV was mangled. The grease had dried. In retrospect I should have used higher quality grease instead of what came with the part. The actual replacement of the joint was not difficult but fitting it back in the jeep and torquing the bolts was kind of tedious. Tighten a few bolts that you can reach, move the vehicle forward or backward to access the others. Repeat. Mark the bolts so you know you got them all, it can get confusing. Ideally I would buy a new mopar front shaft but, too expensive. (Original lasted about 130,000 miles). A good CV in this case should be very tight but still smooth when moved by hand(removed from car). No rotational slop. A bad one will flop around.

Much cheaper than $300-$400 for a whole driveshaft. Despite the negative reviews, I thought it was pretty good quality for made in China after market. I put it in a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Mine has a u-joint at the differential and this cv at the transfer case. I recommend loosening the cv bolts before you remove the driveshaft, unless there is retaining ring. If yours is like mine, you may want to replace your front u-joint while you have it all apart anyway. My u-joint was fairly new, so I just repacked it with grease. The swap is a piece of cake. If your retaing ring is still on, you will have to pry the back cap off the old cv joint to remove it. I removed mine last time I changed my u-joint. Basically remove the old cv, then put the new one together. Dab sone loc-tite on the bolts. The gasket goes on the rubber boot side. Put a couple bolts through to use as a guide for the back plate. Then pack the bearing with grease. Dont be shy on it. I used some good grease I had, rather than the who knows what kind it is grease that comes with it. Put the gasjet on, then put the rubber boot plate on. I used my bench vise to squeeze the unit together. If its not squeezed together, the bolts will not ve long enough to reach the threads. Overall, really simple job. I do recommend ramps if your a driveway mechanic, so you have enough room to finagle the shaft around.

The part worked fine, but it was packaged so the tube of grease exploded in the box. I had to clean everything before trying to assemble and then buy some grease to fill it.

Perfect fit for front driveshaft of 04 Grand Cherokee AT TRANSFER CASE. When I bought it, it said it was for at the axle, but it is actually for at the transfer case.

This kit worked out perfectly for my 03 JGC. I had actually bought a reman prop shaft that made a horrible vibration. After that nightmare getting my money back etc...I bought this and a new u-joint to rebuild my original one. Works perfectly now, was actually easier than I thought it would be. Inluded grease. Instructions are all but useless but work well for keeping grease off of your working surface. Hopefully the boot will hold up, will update if I have any issues.

This part worked and fit perfectly. Was not too hard a swap thanks to some other forums tutorials. So far so good... only had this part installed for ~ 3 weeks. I'd expect it to last for another 90K+ miles. Thank. *** 11/24/2014 *** Update *** Was rotating the tires on my wives KJ and checking various parts. I noticed the outer rubber boot on this Kit was completely torn apart exposing the internals/bearings. This has only been on the jeep for 11 months. KJ is a daily driver... put ~ 12K miles on the rig each year. This product went on well, worked fine, but < 11 months out of a CV boot is terrible!! This rig sees 100% street duty only. We live in Oklahoma so we get every aspect of weather from Rain, 100+ degree temps in the Summer and Snow/Ice in the Winter. OE part lasted over 10 years. Dropped from 5 Stars to 1 Star. Buyer beware on this one.

This new CV joint fit perfectly. The only special tools you need is a C clio/ring expander and a banding tool to seal the boot off. This is much easier to do and cheaper than buying a new driveshaft. I tried the new driveshaft route and it was grossly out of balance.

Was the perfect solution to fixing my 07 Liberty. Took about an hour start to finish to replace. Been on for several months and still great. This the second one I buy. First one was for my 04 Liberty which out-lasted the life of the Jeep

Perfect fit, good quality. I re-used the original hex bolts instead of the supplied Allen key bolts because the supplied ones were a bit shorter. They probably would have been fine, but I prefer the threads to stick out a bit on the other end.

Perfect match. All parts required for installation included. Fair price. Very satisfied!

Good fit for my 2004 Grand Cherokee. No more rumble going down the road!
