This part replaces earlier Porsche numbers 982501203C, 982501203D, and 982501203J.
The rear drive shaft transfers engine torque from the transmission or rear differential to the wheel hub, enabling the driven wheels to propel the vehicle. Integrated CV joints allow smooth power delivery even as the suspension articulates, maintaining consistent traction during acceleration, cornering, and changes in road surface.
Function:
• Transfers rotational force from the drivetrain to the rear wheel
• Accommodates suspension movement via constant-velocity joints
• Maintains smooth, low-vibration power delivery
• Supports stable handling and drivetrain reliability
Worn CV joints or damaged boots can cause clicking noises, vibration under load, grease leakage, and uneven power delivery. Replacing a failing axle restores smooth drivetrain operation and helps protect surrounding components such as wheel bearings and differentials.
When to replace:
• Clicking or knocking noises during acceleration or turning
• Vibration or shudder under load
• Torn or leaking CV boots
• Excessive play detected during inspection
• During suspension, hub, or drivetrain service revealing wear

OEMatch Driveshafts & Parts — Fit, Function, Confidence
OEMatch supplies driveshafts and related parts for Porsche models, cataloguing thousands of part numbers and OE cross-references to support maintenance and restoration. Suitable for classic and modern Porsche applications, these components are selected for correct mounting and compatibility. Many owners search for genuine or OEM driveshafts; these are direct-fit alternatives designed to match the original form, fit and function.
Available Types- Complete driveshaft assemblies
- Universal (U) joints and CV joints
- Driveshaft couplings and flanges
- Boots, seals and retaining hardware
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are made by the same company that produced your Porsche’s original driveshafts and parts.
OE (Original Equipment) refers to parts matching original specifications for the driveshafts and parts and may be supplied by alternative manufacturers. Aftermarket parts offer alternative options, sometimes with enhanced features or better value. OEMatch supplies non-OEM driveshafts and parts engineered as direct-fit alternatives to OEM parts, made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for Porsche models.
Driveshafts transfer torque from the gearbox or differential to the driven wheels while allowing for suspension movement and alignment changes. Balance and correct joint operation are essential to avoid vibration and preserve gearbox and differential bearings in Porsche drivetrains. Components such as CV joints, universal joints, boots and couplings all contribute to smooth power delivery and long service life.
Benefits Include- Restores smooth, vibration-free torque transfer
- Reduces noise and driveline shudder under load
- Helps prevent secondary gearbox and differential damage
- Wear to CV or universal joints from mileage and load
- Torn boots allowing grease loss and contamination
- Corrosion or impact damage to the shaft or flanges
- Imbalance from worn bearings, misalignment or damaged couplings
Replacing worn driveshafts or their components restores balance and reliable torque delivery, improving refinement and vehicle control for Porsche models. Scheduled inspection of joints, boots and couplings during clutch or transmission service helps avoid secondary failures. Many owners search for genuine or OEM driveshafts; these are direct-fit alternatives designed to match the original form, fit and function.
Advantages- Available as complete assemblies or individual service parts for targeted repair
- Made to original-spec dimensions to aid correct alignment and balance
- Includes the fixings and seals needed to complete a repair
