Does anyone know what this is?

I bought it at salvage yard thinking it might be for hmmwv. It's not....any ideas?

Looks like part of a steering column maybe?

Here's another guess: http://www.nsn-now.com/Indexing/ViewDetail.aspx?QString=2590011660611 I google'd 56161SOCN and it's turning up a PTO-driven winch system. Maybe it's possible that it's a PTO shaft for some system, but I'm not sure which?

EDIT: aaaaand I'm certain I'm wrong. That part number hit this result on the manufacturer's website: https://www.paccarwinch.com/products/product/2001 That shaft does not quite look like a large crane winch.

That looks like a driveshaft from one of the many different MRAP vehicles.

My holiday inn guess is the front axle shaft & cv joint to a 4x4, 6x6 etc lmtv /fmtv or hemtt

FOUND IT ! ! ! (maybe) -- this is what came up when I searched the All-knowing Goo with the number visible in the pic. Makes sense. Now ya have an idea anyway.

Part number or NSN, that would be even better.

So you're telling me you can google the info you have, and answer your own questions?
