Sure...it will work fine..
I'm runnin'44's..and a 1310 C/V...
I just ate one u-joint...over the summer.

If you don't have the cash...grind the stops and run-it!!!

If I cant get the flange stuff to work, or it doesnt last as long as I would hope for... I probably will do the upgrade. I like the idea of suing the same yakes front and rear. Thats nice. If only I could get it to use the same shafts. /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

The other HD upgrade is using the Ford front output shaft itself. This output shaft configuration is the same as the rear of the NP203 and NP205, so the yokes interchange. You can get about any driveshaft connection you can imagine for this output configuration. And with the 32 spline, you're basically guaranteed it's not going to break. If you have a 30 spline front output already, it's probably not worth swapping the 32 spline shaft in unless you need the yoke options.

Right at the bottom Ken. I'm debating doing something similar, and a 1410/1410 shaft is capable of some very decent angles as well as being very strong.

That would be my 2nd choice, for sure.

By the time you buy the output and build a shaft you can just buy a 1 ton CV and bolt it together without having to take your 'case apart...that's the main reason that I never did it myself.
 
I will stick with the 30 spline unless it break multiple times.

Doesnt sound like to much of a weakpoint. Just lack of angle of the dangle.

Yep. /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif
 
the 32 spline was from a ford 205 or any dodge or divorced case- and well worth your time to swap up- Jess
 
The last person I want to question on drivelines is you... but /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Is it a strength issue or angle issue with going to the 32 spline, or both?

The 32 spline is the biggest - and also gives more options for shafts - and in my opinion for 99$ is the cheepist one to find right at the minute -the 30 spline will work in most applications but there's only one or two types of shafts we can use - Jesse
 
Well, since I already have the 30 spline output shaft in the t-case, and a 30 spline flange and a driveshaft yoke to fit the flange type. I think I will have go this direction. But, for future reference, this whole thread was a great help!

Thanks again everyone.

Hey Jesse

How much for a 1350 C/V...and the 32 spline flange??

Since I build my own drivelines...I just need parts.
 
Man, I was looking at the angles and all last night and I am going in circles.

I dont think I want to use the flange style anymore. I just dont think it would hold up.

I dont even know if I need to go with a CV style or not? With the doubler, my front shaft is a little longer and the rear is still plently long. I have what I think are 8 inch leaf springs, pretty sure.

Right now the suspension is bound down with ratchet straps so it will fit in the garage. The rear angle is roughly 20 degress at this point. So, I figure add a couple more degrees with the suspension at normal height.

When do you need CVs and when dont you.

Jess, what kind of cost for the front output yoke?

MAn, am I confused and going in circles with all this.

I can't really offer much help with respect to when you need a CV but I will suggest converting to the 32 spline front output shaft that Jesse was talking about. Granted you probably wont break the shaft you have but the 32 spline shaft opens up a whole new world of yoke availability. With that shaft you can run just about what ever combo you want.

FWIW, I ran a non-CV front shaft with 1350 joints (like what comes on a 14 bolt) for years with no problems. My truck had 10" and a 4spd so the angle was pretty steep and I did have to grind on the t-case yoke but it never complained. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

1410's run at a much steeper angle than 1350's do...30 degrees max IIRC.
