About this part
CV Drive Shaft, fitment-checked
A CV drive shaft for the 2025-2026 Ram 2500 4WD, sized for trucks already carrying at least 5 inches of suspension lift. It measures 35.63 inches collapsed and 38.5 inches extended, runs upgraded CV joints, and is rated at twice the strength of the factory shaft. Diesel models only — it does not fit Power Wagon or trucks with a manual transfer case.
Fitment here is narrow and deliberate: 2025-2026 Ram 2500 4WD diesel trucks running at least 5 inches of suspension lift, from Tradesman through Limited Longhorn. At that height the factory shaft is working past its comfortable range, which is where the vibration comes from; this one measures 35.63 inches collapsed and 38.5 inches extended to suit the taller stance, with CV joints built for the added articulation. Rough Country rates the shaft at twice the strength of the factory unit. Power Wagon models and trucks with a manual transfer case are excluded. Shipping weight: 35.0 lb.
