    Guess I need to order that too. If you need, I do have a 1310 non-cv yoke, I won't be swapping the cases until next year.

    i went ahead and just ordered one. I called and they had one in stock.

    didnt you say your case does not have the upgraded output shafts? or did it not have the 4:1?

    the yokes i have are 32 spline

    finally got around to putting on the new yoke and clocked the t-case

    had to cut out the floor and chop out some other pieces with the plasma to get it all the way flat
    you can see the t-case now the low point is my transmission pan... eventually swapping it out so i will just deal with it


    ... also made some jack stack "jacks"

    picked up some new u-joints
    you might have heard of them before

    talked to the guys and Houston Drive Train and they said they do not even sale spicer joints anymore unless people ask for them.

    they are called Neapco. they use the same number as a spicer with like a letter in front of it.

    comparison

    neapco left, spicer right

    you can see the seal on it (the reason they do not sell the spicers now)
    he said the seals do not fail, keep out water and the joints are just as strong

    $40 for 2 of them

    I don't think you have enough room to do that

    the bolt hole in the bushing might end up oval shaped

    When Paul and Blake worked at CarQuest in Corpus some Neapco rep made rounds through all the parts stores and showed them the comparison between their products and Spicer, it apparently made a really good impression on them.

    Neapco isnt exactly new in the auto industry. They made the first Chevy 4wd conversions in the 50's. Cool story, I know.
    On the 8th day god created the Super Swamper TSL and said "go forth and kick ass"

    I also exclusively ran Neapco joints on the camaro. I may have messed up 4 sets of gears in the mighty 10 bolt, but only one joint withstood the abuse. Neapco.
