How did the install go? Did you rebuild it too?
I ask because I finally have all the parts to do both, once I get time. Mine's a 95 242. :cheers:

The install went fairly easy and thier are instructions with it but Tom doesn't give you any torque settings for the nuts

I just installed mine last weekend, the new yolk is only 40 ft-lbs with red locktight. And i would assume, only guessing here, that the front yolk would be more like 200 ft-lbs. Only say that because pinion nuts are usualy torqued around that range. And that nut looks about the same size as front pinion nut.
I got away with not taking that apart. i just undid the snap ring holding the sproket, and it came right off.
Those dam snap rings are a pain in the butt, anyone else have a problem with them? The snap rings and the gasket maker was the hardest part.

I had the round snap ring pliers and it was a pain in the ass, if I had to do it again I would buy the square tipped snap ring pliers
