Here's the good:
I have the option of upgrading the yoke on my rear 9" to a forged 1350. Strong, I like strong.
Here's the rub:
I have an AA HD SYE on my NP231 with the yoke for a 1310 CV. To go to a 1350 yoke on my SYE, AA has a 1350 yoke that just requires a larger seal.
So far so good. According to the tech, this yoke is not for a CV. Here I have to take him at his word, I have no clue as to what the difference is or why.
(still don't know $h!t)
Option two would ge to go ta a flanged output shaft, then mount the correct 1350 yoke. I can see where this may in effect shorten my rear drive shaft. Not that going from a D35 to the 9" won't. The fact that the 9" is a HP and my belief (yea right) that I wont go much more than maybe an inch higher than the 6" of lift I have now would likely off set any loss of DS length.
Question is; am I over thinking things (again) and would be just fine with the 1310 yokes running 33-35" tires, 4:86 gears, ARB, 35 spline alloy axles spun by a 4.0.
I've pretty much came to the conclusion that running the 1350 on the diff with 1310 on the TC may not be such a good idea. It seems that the weak link should not be where it's more difficult to fix.
If I could get some sound input on this before my brain 'splodes, that would be cool.
Thanks again,
TIM
