About this part
CV Drive Shaft, fitment-checked
Rough Country 5083.1 is a CV drive shaft for AWD GMC Sierra 1500 Denali pickups, listed for models with 5 in to 7.5 in of suspension lift where driveline vibration needs correcting. Overall length is 36 in with a 21.25 in tube. Non-Denali and non-AWD Sierra trims are outside its fitment.
Fitment on this one is narrow by design: it is the AWD Sierra 1500 Denali shaft, intended for Denali pickups carrying 5 in to 7.5 in of suspension lift where driveline vibration needs correcting. Overall length is 36 in with a 21.25 in tube. The double-cardan design keeps the operating angle manageable on a lifted full-size truck. Install time runs longer than the Jeep shafts at 3 to 4 hours, so plan the weekend accordingly, and check the fitment table first — non-Denali and non-AWD Sierra trims are not covered.
