- Precision-machined for tight spline engagement and stable steering connection
- Steel, rubber, and painted black construction
- 27-spline design with internal spline and external profile ends

This part cross-references Nissan 48080EA00A for the same application. If you are replacing a worn Nissan Frontier steering shaft or servicing a lower steering shaft on an Xterra or Pathfinder, Dorman 425-617 provides the OE-style dimensions needed for proper alignment and connection.
What This Part Helps Address
- Excessive play or looseness in the steering shaft connection
- Worn splines that no longer hold a secure fit
- Steering vibration caused by a damaged intermediate shaft assembly
- Corrosion or wear in the lower steering shaft section
- Fitment issues from a failed original equipment shaft
Installation Notes
Verify spline count, shaft length, and end style before installation. This steering shaft uses an internal spline on one end and an external profile on the other, so alignment during installation is important. Mounting hardware and installation instructions are not included.
Quality Assurance
Dorman tests this steering shaft to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards and machines it for accurate fitment. It is built as a direct OE replacement for select Nissan Frontier, Xterra, and Pathfinder lower steering applications.
