For SUVs tackling demanding conditions, a dependable drivetrain is essential. Here you will find inner CV joints tailored for a broad range of Jeep models, including four-wheel-drive...
The inner CV joint plays a central role in your vehicle's drivetrain by transferring power from the gearbox or differential to the drive shaft. Unlike the outer CV joint, which sits at the wheel hub and handles steering angles, the inner CV joint is fitted closer to the centre of the vehicle. For a Jeep, which is engineered to cope with heavy loads and demanding terrain, the quality of this component is critical. A properly functioning inner CV joint allows the drive shaft to plunge inwards and outwards as the suspension articulates, which is essential for maintaining smooth power transfer without mechanical stress.
When you choose an inner CV joint from us, you can be confident that the component meets the demanding standards required for American four-wheel-drive vehicles. We focus on providing parts that match original equipment specifications, ensuring your vehicle's handling characteristics remain intact. By replacing a worn constant velocity joint promptly, you prevent secondary damage to other drivetrain components, such as gearbox output shafts or differential bearings.
Over the years, Jeep has utilised several drivetrain configurations, from traditional four-wheel drive to sophisticated systems such as Quadra-Drive and Quadra-Trac. Consequently, an inner CV joint can vary considerably in design depending on your specific model and production year. Differences commonly lie in the number of splines (teeth) on the shaft, the physical diameter of the joint, and how it attaches to the gearbox or differential casing. Some models use a push-in stub shaft, whilst others require a bolt-on flange arrangement.
For models like the Cherokee and Grand Cherokee, it is vital to check specifications thoroughly. Because these vehicles were produced with diverse engine and gearbox pairings, drivetrain components often differ within the very same model series. An inner CV joint for a V8 engine may feature sturdier dimensions than one for a four-cylinder variant to cope with the higher torque output. We help you navigate these variations by providing exact technical specifications for each individual application.
Identifying inner CV joint failure requires attention to distinct symptoms, which differ from the characteristic clicking noise of a worn outer joint when cornering. The most common symptom of a failing inner CV joint is vibration during acceleration. These vibrations are typically felt through the entire body shell and can easily be misdiagnosed as an unbalanced wheel. The telling difference is that vibrations from the CV joint usually vanish the moment you lift off the accelerator and coast.
Another clear indicator is grease leaking from the CV boot. If the boot splits, grease is thrown out, quickly causing the joint to overheat and wear out rapidly from friction and road contamination. If you notice grease splattered beneath the vehicle or near the gearbox, you should take action immediately. Replacing the boot early can occasionally save the joint, but if vibrations have already started, a complete replacement of the inner CV joint is usually the only lasting solution to restore comfort and safety.
To choose the correct spare part for your Jeep, the most reliable method is to select your vehicle by make, model and engine variant. Our catalogue filters the range to display components that are technically compatible with your vehicle's exact specification. In certain cases, you may still need to confirm physical dimensions, particularly if the vehicle has been modified or if multiple technical revisions exist for the same model year. Always verify the spline count on the inner section that enters the gearbox, as well as the outer section that meets the drive shaft.
When you buy an inner CV joint from us, it generally comes supplied with everything required for installation, including the boot, grease, and suitable retaining clips. Choosing a comprehensive kit ensures all components work together seamlessly. We also advise inspecting the complete drive shaft assembly whilst it is removed from the vehicle. If you are ever unsure about fitment, our technical support team is available to assist you, ensuring you complete the repair with confidence using a part that fits straight away.

The most common symptom is body vibration during acceleration that disappears as soon as you release the throttle. Unlike outer CV joints, which typically click when cornering, an inner constant velocity joint fault manifests as an imbalance through the drivetrain.
Yes, if you catch a split boot early before dirt has entered or the grease has completely escaped, you can replace just the CV boot. However, if you are already experiencing vibrations, the joint is likely damaged and must be replaced completely.
The most reliable method is to select your exact Jeep model and engine in our shop filter. If multiple options are listed for your vehicle, you may need to count the splines on your original joint or check the shaft diameter to guarantee a precise fit.
Yes, they often do. Diesel engines produce higher torque, which frequently requires sturdier, heavy-duty CV joints. Always filter by your specific model, engine and gearbox to ensure you receive parts engineered for your vehicle.
Yes, our inner CV joints are supplied as complete kits including a tailored CV boot, high-grade joint grease and all necessary retaining clamps to ensure a straightforward, professional installation.
This is a textbook sign of a worn inner CV joint. When you accelerate, torque loads the joint; any play or pitting within the internal raceways creates vibrations that transfer directly into the vehicle's bodywork.
