Im switching my dana 30 yoke from strap to ubolts and need to know what vehicles to search under at the yard that have dana 44 and the ubolt yoke to fit my 30
TIA
Not only that, but the spacing is not the same on a strap yoke and u-bolt yoke; so when you tighten down a u-bolt on a strap yoke it crushes the bearing cap instead of capturing the head.
After fooling around with drilled out yokes with the problems that Cal and I mentioned, I finally just broke down and bought ones that were already set up for ubolts from Denny's Driveshaft. I like the piece of mind.
Now if I can just get that axle wrap fixed so I stop busting rear yokes and ujoints.
To keep it on topic: I found a cheap d44 yoke on ebay that I was going to work on from an older ford. It wasn't until I opened the package that I realized it was way fewer splines than what's on the d30. Just something to watch out for...should be plenty obvious at the jy.
for the price its better then crawling under some rusty junk at the yard and wrestling off a pinion nut in the heat just to be charged as high as $10 for a rusty yoke.
Neapco brand pinion yokes have slightly larger locator/side tabs than stock spicer yokes. Once the tab is broken off the yoke is junk. Just something to think about when upgrading.
