Hey Guys,
I have the big Denny's driveshaft but still have the stock yoke on the rearend. Who has a part number for the Dana joint for the dual application?
Thanks
Coach

Hey Coach,

Do you mean a 1350 x 3R combination rear yoke?

 

[coach]

I'm not sure...Denny's 3.5" nitrous ready 1350 to a stock rear pinion yoke. I was going to call Denny's tomorrow.

Get a new yoke. The conversion yokes have a grease fitting. I have never seen a solid one. Watch what yoke you end up with, the aftermarket ones are usually slightly longer, and will require a slightly shorter driveshaft. It is just enough where the driveshaft won't fit. My old 10 bolt had a 1350 yoke from a GM truck application, it was the same length as stock. I don't know what the application was.

Sorry Coach, I can't seem to find it either., but I know I've seen em around.
Best to give Denny's a call in the am.

Just my 2cents.........and with all due respect......Seems kinda crazy though not to step up to the 1350 forged rear yoke & go with the 1350 spicer U joint?
I know it's a couple hundred more, but you've got too much into your project not to.
For the kind of HP you're gonna be putting out , seems like it would be money well spent.

IMO, the 1350 isn't much stronger than the factory 3R. Now going with a 1310 or 1330 is a downgrade.

Your right. I contacted Denny, and the 1350 to 3R joint is a hollow joint with grease fittings. No way I'm running a hollow joint. I'm bolting on the forged yoke.

Nice.........

Now that's what I'm talkin about!

Have you fit your driveshaft?

 

[coach]

It's a made for GN shaft
It measures same as stock

 

[coach]

Yoke went on perfect, and driveshaft fits great.

Glad to hear Coach!

Now you've got piece of mind knowing your drive shaft & yokes are pretty much bullet proof too!

You know what they say....."an ounce of prevention, is worth a pound of cure"

Now, what about your axles? Spline count ?

Good to hear. When we did Joe's driveshaft, we had one made in stock length. Once he installed the 1350 yoke, the new driveshaft was 3/8" too long. Luckily we used Henderson Driveline in Westlake, and they were able to fix it the same day. Just would have hated to see you install the driveshaft and discover it wouldn't fit, with a couple days before the dyno.

This driveshaft and yoke was all in a kit from Denny's Driveshafts. If it wouldn't have fit...shit woulda hit the fan!!! Lol
