Older Jeep Grand Cherokee with Quadra Trac

There are 3 different versions used on the AWD Grand Cherokee and some year model overlap. We offer U-Joint Constant Velocity driveshafts which are far stronger than the OE set up on the later model Grand Cherokee’s. All driveshafts are guaranteed to fit and work perfectly on stock height vehicles. We do not recommend installing lift kits on Grand Cherokee because the front driveshaft is always spinning. With to much angle on the OE shaft or one we provide driveshaft there is a good chance of vibration. The OE shaft will not last long on a lifted vehicle either. We do NOT Guarantee our driveshaft to run perfectly smooth on lifted Grand Cherokee’s.

Type 1:

Up to 1995 (approx.) the all UJ CV-1 type driveshaft was used. Pricing is $425+shipping. Use M1-3 in the Measure Sheet section to determine correct length.

Type 2:

From 95 to 99 (approx.) the driveshaft was a U-Joint type CV at Transfer Case and a GKN type CV at the front differential. This is Dealer Only item - not available from us.

We offer a front conversion CV Driveshaft that uses a U-Joint at the front differential. This requires a new front pinion yoke (included) and a bolt/strap kit (included) to attach the U-Joint to new pinion yoke. This is very easy to change out. Installation instruction at the end of Type 3. Pricing is $490 plus shipping . Use M1-8 in the Measure Sheet section to determine correct length. We need this length check because there are several version used.

Type 3:

From 99 and up (approx.) the grand Cherokee driveshaft was an enclosed GKN type CV joints on both ends. We do NOT offer this type of OE driveshaft.

We do offer a U-Joint type conversion driveshaft. This kit comes complete with a new yoke for the Transfer Case and a new pinion yoke for the front differential. All mounting hardware is included. Pricing is $575 plus shipping Use M1-9 in the Measure Sheet section for length check. We need this length check because of several variations of driveshafts used.

Installation Instructions for Type 2 and Type 3:

While it might initially seem a bit difficult to install these driveshafts, it is quite simple. Do NOT move vehicle while installing front pinion yoke. Front pinion yoke-remove nut holding existing pinion type flange, pull of flange and slide new pinion yoke on. Tighten to 225 lb ft or more. This is a shim type differential (no crush sleeve) so get it on tight. Air tools make quick work of this. Transfer Case-Remove nut holding flange on T-Case and remove. Re-install new TC yoke supplied and tighten securely. Install driveshaft with supplied hardware.
