Shop Now for 1994-2001 Dodge Ram 1500 Front Constant Velocity Driveshaft Slip Joint Parts. In stock for quick shipping.
Slip Yokes: For the 1994-1998 model years, all factory front CV shafts use a 1-9/32" fine spline stub and yoke with a Detroit Universal 7290 u-joint. The slip Joint is shielded by QK3078 Boot. 1999 are goofy years, so goofy that my 1999 and 2000 Dodge Parts books do not even list the front driveshaft parts! You may find some real early 1999 trucks with the 7290 series slip yoke. However, Most 1999 Driveshafts still have the 29 based on 30 fine spline slip stub, but use a Spicer 1330 series slip yoke with a conversion joint that attaches to a 7290 series front pinion yoke. Late production 1999 shafts may have a coarse, 16 spline, 1330 series slip joint with the 1330 x 7290 conversion u-joint. Real early 2000 trucks may still use the conversion joint and/or fine spline slip yoke, but most, if not all will use a 16 spline 1330 slip yoke with a straight 1330 u-joint. Given the age of this era of Dodge trucks, it is not unusual to find non-standard components. A great many of these trucks have had the original slip joint replaced with 1-3/8" diameter 16 spline aftermarket parts.
Slip Stubs: The original equipment Slip Stubs for 1994 to 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 front Double Cardan front CV shafts are no longer in production. If you need a slip stub for driveshaft, we have our special QU40843 16 spline stub that is a bit longer than any of the original stubs so you can just cut the tube to the right length without having to precisely machine through the old weld. You can also use the extra length to lengthen your driveshaft for lift kit applications.
If you have a 1994 to early 1999 truck with the fine spline slip joint, you will also need to purchase QU40771 Slip Yoke, QU40764 Universal Joint, and QU40132 Boot. For later 1999 to 2002 models with the 1-3/8" original 16 spline or 15 spline based on 16 spline stub you can reuse both the slip yoke and boot if they are in good condition.
