Over decades of trail use, running larger oversized tires, or experiencing a catastrophic universal joint failure, the axle shaft's yoke ears can bend, stretch, or crack. A compromised outer stub shaft will typically present itself through severe tire wobble, invasive clicking or popping noises while turning, or an inability to properly seat a new universal joint due to warped retaining snap-ring grooves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003eThis original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement component is precision-machined by Dana from high-cleanliness, heat-treated alloy steel.
