If you’ve got a 1994-1996 Dodge Dakota, you know how important it is to keep everything running smoothly. The 1994-1996 Dodge Dakota Front OE Driveshaft Assembly - ZDS9701 from USA Standard is a solid choice when your old driveshaft starts to show its age. I’ve been there—nothing’s worse than a worn-out driveline when you’re trying to hit the trails or just get to work.
This driveshaft is made right here in the USA, and you can really feel the quality. It’s crafted from ASTM A513 DOM tubing, which means it’s built to last. Each one is precision balanced, so you won’t have to worry about any annoying vibrations or runout that can mess with your ride. It’s like putting a fresh pair of shoes on your Dakota—suddenly it feels like new again.
What’s great is that this assembly is designed specifically for models with the NV 231 transfer case and either the 42RE or 46RE automatic transmission. Measuring in at 27 inches from the center of the u-joint caps, it fits perfectly without any fuss. Just swap it in and you’re back on the road, whether you’re hauling gear or just cruising around town.
And let’s not forget about peace of mind—this driveshaft comes with a limited lifetime warranty. It’s nice knowing that you’re backed by a company that stands by their products. With over 600 fitments available, USA Standard has you covered for everything from classic rides to today’s popular models.
So, if you’re in the market for a reliable replacement, this driveshaft might just be what you need to keep your Dakota in top shape. It’s OEM quality, ready to install, and won't break the bank. Trust me, you’ll appreciate the difference when you hit the gas again.
