Double cardan rear shaft- yoke or flange?

[PatrickH]

I'm fixin to put a 14B ine the rear of my '90 Blazer, 241 transfer case. Going to install SYE from JB conversions. Should I use a 1310 yoke style CV, or a 1350 flange type?

1350 flange

 

[PatrickH]

1350 flange

So, the most expensive...

 

[doubletrouble]

1350 flange, it’s cheaper in the long run.

 

[Justin V]

Flange all the way

Make a few calls. I got mine from Tom Woods, was the best price

Some of the local heroes are expensive without the quality

 

[PatrickH]

The cost doesn't matter really. Thanks guys.

Well, not really. What are you going for as an operating angle? The 1310 will work a little more angle than a 1350 but is weaker. If you don't need a huge angle I'd go 1350. If you need angle and strength isn't a huge issue then 1310s. If you need strength and angle, well, get out your wallet. 1410 will give you both. And definitely flange any way you go.

Nothing serious; 4" shackle flip, 35's, Eaton electric lockers, stock TBI 350

Flange for sure. I used a 1350 superduty shaft, hand to clearance slightly to get full 12” of travel.

I'm using a stock front flange on the rear T-case output and had the C/V joint built to match that. TW and HAD want to sell you their custom machined flanges, but a stock one is plenty strong and cheap/free, assuming you have the normal 32-spline output.

Same as I did, I'm using the front CV joint as well. Driveline guy was able to mate it up to the driveshaft tubing with a little work. He said it will be plenty strong, which was my concern, but I'm not pushing big tires or a lot of HP.

I was anticipating using the flange supplied with the JB Conversions SYE, and then order a drive shaft fro Tom Woods. I've purchased probably 9 drive shafts from him over the years and never been disappointed.

Why not use the tom woods sye kit? @RivMan used their kit. It was cheaper than the jb kit.

I didn't see a SYE for 241 case on the website, but I'll call before I purchase
