Re: Yoke for an AMC20
Did you drill it too big or too small?
Or was it too wide or too narrow? Mike 86/00 CJ7 Laredo, 33x9.5 BFG Muds, 'glass nose to tail in '00 88 Cherokee 235 BFG AT's Jeff Strickland wrote: > > I tried that already, the ubolts don't fit.

Re: Yoke for an AMC20
The bolt holes were too close together for the ubolt. If I closed the bolt
so that it would fit the holes, then it was too small to fit the ujoints. The ubolt type yoke is actually a little larger than the strap type yoke. Of course, the joint location is the same size, but the rest of the yoke is larger.

Re: Yoke for an AMC20
The hole I made is pretty large (compared to the original hole), and I can't
imagine how the ubolt can be made to fit and still have enough material to retain the integrity of the yoke. In any case, Randy's Ring and Pinion has a new Yoke Kit that contains the yoke, ubolts, oil seal, ujoint and pinion nut, all for about $35. The yoke alond costs $32, so the rest of the stuff is thrown in for just $3 more. Sweet deal!

Re: Yoke for an AMC20
Thanks.
I was thinking on converting mine to u-bolts and will check the dimensions out 'real' carefully before I start. I have a Dana 44 rear with the Dana 300 t-case.

Re: Yoke for an AMC20
There is a place on the Web called Randys Ring and Pinion. They carry a
"trail maintenance kit" that contains the yoke, ubolts, pinion seal and nut, and ujoint all for $35, the yoke itself is $32 if ordered separately. I can't believe they give away a ujoint for 3 bucks. These are USD prices, you will pay double in Canada ;-) "Mike Romain" <romainm@sympatico.ca> wrote in message news:3F44FCAA.868E72E8@sympatico.ca... > Thanks. > > I was thinking on converting mine to u-bolts and will check the > dimensions out 'real' carefully before I start. > > I have a Dana 44 rear with the Dana 300 t-case. > > Mike > > Jeff Strickland wrote: > > > > The hole I made is pretty large (compared to the original hole), and I can't > > imagine how the ubolt can be made to fit and still have enough material to > > retain the integrity of the yoke. > > > > In any case, Randy's Ring and Pinion has a new Yoke Kit that contains the > > yoke, ubolts, oil seal, ujoint and pinion nut, all for about $35.
