rear end yoke
i bought a custom one piece driveshaft and i have a th400 with a fixed yoke so i bought the drive shaft with the slip spline in it. well when the driveshaft shop told me to measure for u joints my buddy measured the yoke on my tranny and we came up with it was the 1350 series. he said the rear end yoke ws the same. so i ordered a 1350 series driveshaft . front went right on yesterday in 3 mins. i go to put back in and it aint even clos. i measured it and i came up with its a 1310 series in the rear. i know they make u joint adapters but could i just put a 1350 yoke in the rear end? or to do that would i have to change axles?

Re: rear end yoke
Maybe this chart will help you. I borrowed it from another members post. One thing to remember and I know it happens all the time is that when you remove a yoke from a pinion, you also lose the preload on the pinion bearings. The only way to make sure you have the correct preload is to replace the crush sleeve that is in between the pinion bearings. If you just hammer it on with an impact, you will not get the full life from the pinion bearings.
If it were me, I would get the correct u-joint. U-joint conversions: 1310 to 1350 Spicer: #5-460X Neapco: #3-3150 1330 to 1350 Spicer: #5-134X Neapco: #1-0134 1310 to S44/3R Spicer: #5-3022X Neapco: #3-3130 1350 to 1410 Neapco: #11-501410 Dimensions.......................... 1310: (A&B) = 3.25” (C) = 1-1/16” Special = 1-1/8” 1330: (A&B) =3 5/8” (C) = 1-1/16” Special =1 1/8” For 1310BC & 1330BC Special, only 2 caps are 1 1/8" & other 2 caps are 1 1/16" (primarily used on Ford applications). 1350: (A&B) = 3-5/8” (C) = 1-3/16” 1410: (A&B) = 4-3/8” (C) = 1-3/16” 1480: (A&B) = 4-3/16” (C) = 1-3/8” 1550: (A&B) = 4-31/32” (C) = 1-3/8" Attached Images |
