Experience with cv shaft

Hmmm...well would it be worth it to keep the stock slip yoke and just get them to build a new cv shaft or should I try to get them to make me the whole new assembly 1350 the whole way through.


Whole new shaft. 1350 all the way through with a cv and a slip yoke flange that bolts to that.

Im taking my stock shaft and making a square driveline to limp out of trails with. Thats about all the stock stuff is good for.


This is what i have and what you need....



 
That looks pretty. Well I will see if they can build me a while new one ton and if not then I'll give Dennys Driveshafts a call.

Did your local shop build that? If so, I don't see why the place here can't do the same. Also, how much lift are you running, I wonder what degree I will need the pinion at once this is all said and done.
 
don't forget 1310 will handle more angle than 1350 joint .

and 1410 will handle more angle over 1350 .

keep this all in mind .
 
That's why I was curious if I should keep the 1310 stock slip yoke at least. I'm trusting you guys on this one, as you have more experience with this stuff. I will be driving the truck alot and it will only see some light off-roading.

Yeah a local shop built that shaft but there not some jeep lifting bolt on kinda place. They produce over 200 shafts a day so they have quite a bit of experience.

1350 is what you want. im flexing pretty good with roughly a 6 inch lift and im no where near maxing out. 1310s may offer more angle but I feel that they arent the right size for this truck. Im on one tons and 40s though. One ton shafts use 1350s for a reason, just like 14 bolts. Tom woods site calculated a 37.5% strength increase using 1350.

If I can flex my way through the rubicon and not bind thenyou know its legit lol

Buy a new 1350 shaft and be done with it. Its not something you want to keep you from getting home.
 
if going 1350 then don't forget the new axle yoke / seal / nut / new crush sleave / time to do it right . if your running a rear with other yoke size.
 
Yeah that's about what happened here, whole reason for all these questions. Ready to get up and running again.
 
This may be a dumb question but the shop should have a 32 spline 1350 rear slip yoke correct? And that will fit the 208 t-case. I know in the pic you put up the slip yoke on the new one looks wider.
