Because these trucks are commonly subjected to heavy utility use, mud, snow, and oversized tires, the outer splines can twist, the threads can strip, or the universal joint ears can stretch over time. Reusing a warped or fatigued stub shaft can cause accelerated wheel bearing wear or sudden failure on the road. This premium replacement component restores original factory strength with trusted Spicer OEM steel forging, delivering precise spline engagement and deep fatigue resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eProduct Highlights:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eConvenient Hardware Bundle:\u003c\/b\u003e Includes one genuine heavy-duty front outer axle stub shaft and a matching replacement slotted spindle nut for immediate setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eGenuine Spicer OEM Quality:\u003c\/b\u003e Forged from high-grade, heat-treated carbon steel to strict factory engineering standards for maximum torsional strength and shear resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePrecision Machined Splines:\u003c\/b\u003e Features exact factory spline dimensions to ensure a smooth slide-fit into original equipment or aftermarket front wheel hub bearings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDirect Application Fit:\u003c\/b\u003e Engineered specifically as a direct factory replacement for second-generation \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"102\"\u003eDodge Ram 4x4 monobeam Dana 44 front axle\u003c\/b\u003e configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eVehicle \u0026amp; Axle Fitment:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMake:\u003c\/b\u003e Dodge\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eModels:\u003c\/b\u003e Ram 1500 4x4 \/ Ram 2500 4x4 (Light Duty Models with Dana 44 Front Axle)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eYears:\u003c\/b\u003e 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eAxle Profile:\u003c\/b\u003e Front Monobeam Dana 44 (Fits both Left\/Driver or Right\/Passenger outer positions)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,4,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePosition:\u003c\/b\u003e Front Outer Wheel End \/ Spindle Axis (Sold Individually)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Spicer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43563541266506,"sku":"PLAT-SPICER-KIT173","price":135.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0706\/5560\/6858\/files\/12_858c03b4-9781-43fc-9714-26295ed9f191.jpg?v=1777818420","url":"https:\/\/platinumperformanceparts.com\/products\/dana-44-outer-axle-shaft-with-nut-dodge-ram-1500-2500-1994-2002","provider":"Platinum Performance Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
