I put a 14BFF in the rear of my 85 K10 pickup. I used the conversion joint everyone gets from napa. Well, it went into the driveshaft fine. And I got new straps for the 14BFF. Well, if you look at the yoke of the axle and the straps you can see daylight all the way around. What did I do wrong? wrong joint or wrong straps? Any help appreciated. part number 447 is what i used.
 
need pictures or something? search tells me im using the right joint and i dont wanna drive it like this
 
did you have a 10 bolt or a 12 bolt originally? I had a 12 bolt and when i went to a 14 bolt. I used new Napa # 240-0358 conversion u-joint
 
im gonna get pictures now. I know there is people out here that have done the swap and it fit!!! did i get the right joint???:confused:
