Well, finally killed a piece of my drive-line

[JoeliusZ28]

I don't think its possibly to throw a yoke out of balance.

Thats what i would think too, but you might second guess that if you experienced the degree of vibration that went through the car when that thing let go ...

[Fox Slaughter]

Well the yoke is cast I believe unless you get a forged unit. I would assume it would just break, I guess it could fracture on a cast unit.

[JoeliusZ28]

Ok, I'll assume its the driveshaft then. Thanks!

Did you look inside the yoke to see if the splines are twisted? Its a super common problem with stock yokes and as the suspension cycles it will not let the yoke slide freely on the output shaft as needed causing a bind.

Something to look at.

So youre talking about the front of the driveshaft? It seemed to slide in and out pretty effortlessly when I R&R'd it.

Just call up Strange and get a forged yoke. Won't have to worry anymore.

EDIT: Strange doesn't make them for the 10 7.5". http://www.dennysdriveshaft.com/c397...h_10_bolt.html 80 bucks for the 1350.

Here is the 27 spline Slip Yoke, 1350. 65 bucks. http://www.dennysdriveshaft.com/p252..._se.html#photo

Get those and all you'll have to worry about is twisting the driveshaft in two. Haha.

Pretty safe to say the driveshaft is in need of replacement.

i would agree... just get a new one and quit messing with this one.. its junk

[JoeliusZ28]

Why can't i get it balanced? Granted itll probably cost the same, but Its not that bad. I think it is the pinon angle going all over that is amplifying a relatively small issue by three or four fold.

Anyone have a DS for sale?

Anyone want to buy a 95 Camaro?

[Fox Slaughter]

I'll give you 20 bucks for your car.

$20 a day for a year and a half and you got a deal!

Actually, I have one I'd sell. Steel CCI unit, bought last year, has about 500-750 miles on it. I think it's 3" but not positive. Really nice piece.

You think its a Corvette or something?

It can't even drive down the road without vibrating your teeth out right now. So 20 bucks. 40 if it was in perfect working order.

I might be interested in that.

Does a 9" use a different length driveshaft?

I'm trying to turn it into one

I'm not sure. Thinking of switching rear ends?
