I assume this is an NP231? Is it dropped at all or something maybe messed up your linkage?

 

I honestly wouldn't know, like i said this is my first jeep. Bought it a little over a month and a half ago. Its lifted an inch, however it is now is how i got it.

 

that's interesting its missing.... Around me you can get them used on craigs list for 35$, or junk yards for about the same. there are 4 bolts on the transfer case side, and 4 bolts with 2 straps for the front diff. its pretty simple to do.

 

I bought the jeep off some shady guy for 750 so nothing surprises me about this thing anymore...... I just googled it, around 550-600 for a brand new one.... If i cant find one at a junk yard looks like i'm selling this thing or junking it.

 

like he said. I picked mine up at the junkyard for $40, so I have a spare. make sure you get one that has an auto transmission if thats what you have, or manual etc. I got mine from an automatic and its an inch longer than my manual one, so I had to switch double cardan joints which is what originally broke.

 

Its got an auto aw4..... hopefully a junkyard has one

 

there 35$ are a yard if you go pull it. I am sure the other yards that pull it for you will want 100-200...lol

 

If you cant find a driveshaft right away its not a big deal. You can drive it like that instead of junking or selling it.

 

I bought the jeep with the intentions of having a winter car for the upcoming winter, it won't serve its purpose without that driveshaft and i have no need for 2 cars.

 

Double post

 

where in NY are you?

 

Queens, near woodhaven and queens center mall.

 

I'll buy it from you if you want to go on a little trip,and I'd pay for your fuel but I live way up past Albany about 2hrs north roughly.lol good luck on your hunt and I hope your front axle is good.

 

If it runs good, don't junk it out. Jeeps are too hard to find.

 

Where are you located? Just run to a JY and get one out of a scrapped Cherokee, or better yet get two so you have one for doing an SYE in the future. My new one from Carolina rockshop was around $100. Very easy to install at home. Just 8 bolts, 4 on each end
