1330 or 1350 Pinion Yoke?
Hey all
I need to replace the flat pinion flange on my 8.8" diff with something a little smaller. It has the large flange and clearence against the driveshaft tunnel is very tight. Anyway, now is the time to decide which one. Thoughts? Larry |
It's cliche' to say, but the system is only as strong as the weakest weak. What size is your slip yoke?
|
Hey Larry if it clears it clears. It's not going anywhere with an independent so keep the biggest you can in there.
|
Thanks guys!
That's kind of my thoughts too Nick. I need to find out how wide a 1350 yoke is. It can't be bigger than the flat flange currently bolted on or I'm sunk. Brent, I haven't bought the slip yoke yet so I'll make the whole thing match the pinion yoke. Larry |
Ok, thought you were matching to an existing driveshaft. In that case, go big. :)

Larry,
Go to the bottom of this page : http://www.therangerstation.com/Maga...08/ujoints.htm It looks like the 1330 and 1350 are the same width except for the cap diameter. I'd pick the larger cap diameter if there is a choice. If the yoke fits..... :LOL::LOL::LOL: Tom |
Hey thanks Tom. That's some great info.
Both are 3.625" wide, with the 1350 having a cap diameter of 1.188" vs the 1330's cap diameter of 1.062". That's exactly what I needed to know. One more question; when I install the new yoke, do I need to check the lash or will it still be the same as with the flat flange? Larry |
If you change the pinion flange you need to get the specs and see if it's a crush collar or shimmed pinion. They are typically done up till the torque required to turn them over is to the spec of ? inch/lbs. If you need an inch/lb torque wrench let me know.
|
Thanks Nick! I have an inch/lb torque wrench, so I'll do some reasearch and see what I can find for specs.
