Different yokes for different strokes...


You can buy longer yokes. More yoke in makes a more stable u-joint... I'd run as long of a one as possible. Check the transmission specs to see what it will accept and allow for some stroke. It DOES move in and out.


You're probably running the 1310 joint --- I always upgrade this stuff to 1350 -- but that's a different issue.

If you're going to haul your driveline over to Inland... ask them to give you a loaner slip yoke -- and take it home and see if it will go in and out without any interference....

Then have them replace both your u-joints while you're there... just because... or at least have them check them for roundness (of the cap) - then have them do a HIGH SPEED balance...
