Toyota RAV4 AWD Rear Driveshaft 37100-42090

This is the complete rear propeller shaft for the third-generation RAV4 with all-wheel drive. It runs from the transfer (power take-off) unit back to the rear coupling and differential, and comes assembled with the center support bearing and joints.

Fitment: 2006-2013 Toyota RAV4 AWD. It replaces Toyota part number 37100-42090. Front-wheel-drive RAV4s do not have a rear driveshaft. The assembly weighs about 33 lb and is roughly 90 in long, so check the length against your old shaft before you pull it.

On these RAV4s the shaft usually gets replaced for a dry or collapsed center support bearing, which causes a hum or rumble from under the middle of the car, or for a worn joint that shows up as a vibration on takeoff or a clunk when shifting between drive and reverse. Mark the flanges before you remove the old shaft so the new one goes in without a balance problem, then torque the flange and center bearing bolts to spec.
