Hi, I have a 88 xj dana 44 and I need to replace the pinion yoke(broken u joint locator tabs) so I was wondering if i could use the 1310 size pinion yoke like from a ford. They both have 26 splines.
At the same time I would be getting a SYE, do you know of any makers that would substitute the 1310 size yoke in the sye kit, or if the same pinion yoke would work on the new output shaft.
Any coments suggestions or alternetives welcome ;D

just wondering brenden, do you have a transfercase drop. how did the u joint locator tabs break?? crazy pinion angle? if you went sye and a driveshaft from tom woods, i think you would be good, and wouldnt have to worry about anything, my 2 cents

They broke when he was out with dan and I, Must have hit a rock with them or something. Not a pinion angle issue though.
As for substituting yokes, your gunna need a new one on both the axle side and the tcase side. So i dont know what substitution would be possible. if its the same yoke as on a D30 or D35 or 8.25 let me know and i'll pick one up in NY this weekend. Hope this helps.

Any driveshaft you order can be set up any way you want, that's why they're called custom.
It wouldn't hurt to see if the yoke fit physically. It will only take a minute. Or if you don't want to try, I'm sure if you called Randy's Ring & Pinion they could tell you.

Thats what I got.. I got two d44 1350 yokes with u bolts instead of straps from Randy's.. Since I need to cut and shorten/lengthen my drive shafts, I am having the shaft yokes cut off and replaced with 1350 units.

in case you forgot, Performance offroad center (PORC) has the best price, bobby and some other guys use it, i dunno if you can get shafts from them, prolly....or just go the tom woods direction!

Yeah mine was 169.99 shipped. I was quite pleased with the kit. As for a driveshaft mesure it up, dan has the same length front and rear ds. You MAY be able to get away with a front shaft in the rear. Remember the auto and stick cherokee's have differant length front shafts.
