Default Cherokee Tom Woods Double Cardon Driveshaft

Decided that I'm not going to be using the driveshaft on the Comanche and have no intents on getting another Cherokee for wheeling any time soon so it's up for sale..

The double cardon driveshaft is the new driveshaft that is needed when you install a SYE on a Cherokee. It's a Tom Woods driveshaft with fairly new u-joints and cardon pivot joint (not sure exactly what it's called). the measurements on the driveshaft from the center of the two outside u-joints, the measurement is 32" (fully collapsed) to 36.5" (fully extended).

$200 firm for it as it costs well over $300 from Tom Woods.

These are one of the best driveshafts made for jeeps. I have one on mine becuase I had to install the SYE with the size lift I put on.

This is the rear shaft and I was running 8" of lift on my Cherokee. It should fit lower lifts also, not sure to how small though. Best bet would be to measure to see if it will fit.

Slip Yoke Eliminator.

and at 6.5" rear lift with the Slip yoke still my 31.5" shaft is the right size. so add an SYE and it would be WAY to long. that size is meant more for comanchee's and extra tall cherokees unless you were to have it cut down by a local shop.

good luck on the sale.

A stock Comanche's shorted driveshaft is 46.35". I would be keeping this if it wasn't so short since my '92 is 43.25" and the '86 is 54.75" + about another 6 to 8 inches from the Chevy 350 and 8" lift.

If this doesn't sell, I'm probably going to get it lengthened later on and throw it in the back of the '86 Comanche.

Also willing to trade for Jeep/Chevy 350 parts, metal (tube, flat sheets, etc...), or rod ends (johnny joints, heims, or others besides poly/rubber).
