2015-2019 Challenger Rear Driveshaft for Dodge Challenger V6 3.6L

This 2015-2019 Challenger rear driveshaft is a complete rear prop shaft assembly listed for the Dodge Challenger with the 3.6L V6 engine. It measures 71.7 to 73.2 inches (1820 to 1860 mm) in length and is listed under reference numbers 976-987, 976987 and 52123974AC through 52123974AJ. Easy Life Markets offers it as a fully assembled replacement for owners and workshops who need to replace a worn, noisy or damaged rear driveshaft without rebuilding the old one.

On a rear-wheel-drive car like the Challenger, the rear driveshaft carries engine power from the transmission output to the rear differential. It spins at high speed, has to stay in balance, and must cope with small changes in length and angle as the rear suspension moves. It does this with universal joints (U-joints) and a slip yoke. When those joints wear, the shaft can vibrate, clunk when you shift, or make noise as you pull away. Replacing the complete assembly restores all of the joints at once. You can read more about how a drive shaft transmits power to the wheels.

What Is Included

1 x rear driveshaft (prop shaft) assembly, black finish

The shaft comes fully assembled with its U-joints and slip yoke in place. According to the supplier, high-temperature grease is already applied to the slip yoke and U-joints. Mounting bolts and straps are not listed as included, so plan to reuse your existing hardware or replace it as your service information recommends.

Compatibility

The supplier lists this rear driveshaft for:

Dodge Challenger, 2015–2019, with the 3.6L V6 engine

The Challenger was sold with several engines, transmissions and drivetrain layouts over these years, and the rear driveshaft is not the same on every version. The listing is for the V6 3.6L only. Before you order, please check these points:

Check the part number on your old shaft, on your parts invoice, or in a Mopar parts catalogue using your VIN, and compare it with the numbers above.
Measure your old shaft and confirm it falls within the 71.7–73.2 in (1820–1860 mm) range.
Compare the ends of your shaft with the product photos to confirm the flange and yoke style match.

If you are not sure, contact us with your VIN and the number from your old part, and we will help you check before you buy.

Signs Your Rear Driveshaft Needs Replacing

Vibration felt through the floor or seat that gets worse with speed
A clunk when shifting from park into drive or reverse, or when you get on and off the throttle
Squeaking or chirping from under the car at low speed, often from a dry U-joint
Visible play when you twist the shaft by hand with the car safely supported
Rust, dents or a bent tube after road debris or an impact

A worn rear differential, transmission mount or wheel bearing can cause similar symptoms, so it is worth inspecting the whole driveline before replacing parts.

Installation Tips

Park on level ground, put the transmission in park or neutral as your service manual directs, and support the car securely on stands.
Mark the position of the shaft on the differential flange before removal so you can check alignment later.
Support the shaft while you undo the bolts so it does not drop or pull on the transmission seal.
Clean the mating surfaces, fit the new shaft, and tighten every bolt to the torque figure in your service information.
Check the transmission fluid level after fitting, as a little may escape when the slip yoke is removed.
Road test at different speeds and listen for vibration or noise.

The driveshaft is part of the drivetrain, so professional installation is recommended if you do not have experience with this type of work or do not have proper lifting equipment.

Why Choose a Complete Driveshaft Assembly

Rebuilding a driveshaft means pressing out old U-joints, sourcing new ones and then having the shaft balanced again. A complete 2015-2019 Challenger rear driveshaft arrives assembled, which saves time and avoids the vibration that can follow a rebuild done without balancing equipment. It also replaces all of the moving joints at once, rather than just the one that failed first.

Caring for Your New Driveshaft

After installation, check the shaft whenever the car is raised for an oil change or tyre rotation. Look for grease leaking from the U-joints, damage to the tube, and loose bolts. Avoid hard launches from a standstill if you want the joints to last longer, as sudden torque puts high loads on every part of the driveline. If you notice a new vibration or clunk, have it checked early, before a worn joint damages other components. The universal joint article explains why joint angles and wear matter.

Who This Rear Driveshaft Is For

This rear driveshaft suits owners of a 2015–2019 Dodge Challenger V6 3.6L, independent repair shops and DIY mechanics who have confirmed that their car uses one of the reference numbers listed above and that their shaft length is in the listed range.

Common Questions

Is this a genuine Mopar or Dodge part? No. It is an unbranded aftermarket driveshaft sold under the reference numbers listed above. It is not a genuine part of the vehicle maker.

Does it fit V8 Challenger models? The supplier lists it for the V6 3.6L only. Other engine versions may use a different driveshaft, so check your part number before you order.

Do I need to grease it before fitting? The supplier states the slip yoke and U-joints are pre-greased. Follow your service manual for any lubrication at the slip yoke during fitting.
