I purchased a new Prop shaft from Axles Unlimited for $635.00. Pretty good deal. However, visually it is not identical. however, dimensionally it is. They assured me it was the right one and would fit, but my eyes make me wonder...
The length is identical as is the position of the center carrier bearing. What is different is the size of the center U-joint which looks more substantial. The center joint also has a grease fitting which the old one did not.
Take a look at the pictures. Side by side photos below.
Does anyone know if Volvo updated their design and left the dimensions the same?
If the length etc. is identical is there any reason it shouldn't fit or problems it could cause?
Thanks in advance!
