longer driveshaft yoke
i'm working on a 72 k10 with th350 np203 driveline i moved the driveline forward 2 inches for a big block and now the rear driveshaft is almost out of its splines does anyone make a longer yoke to put on the shaft to save me having to have it lenghtened. the splines are on the driveshaft its a fixed yoke at the transfercase

Re: longer driveshaft yoke
well the yoke just slides on splines on the end of the driveshaft it doesn't look like it would be that bad

Re: longer driveshaft yoke
I don't know if different length yokes exist. I've not seen anything but stock, and have always either shortened or lengthened the driveshaft as required.

Re: longer driveshaft yoke
The link didn’t work. Go to the Fort Wayne clutch website.

Re: longer driveshaft yoke
IMHO....the longer yokes may be an "easier" fix, but they may also be a future source of issues....
I would suggest you get a longer front driveshaft made up by a specialist shop....the driveshafts in these trucks can move in and out 3" with suspension movement.... More if the rear is dropped.... Just my humble opinion. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: longer driveshaft yoke
Checkout Tom Woods driveshafts. Quality products. Will custom make or modify your current driveshaft. I have used them on my CJ and K20. Excellent
