I have found several 1480 yokes for the Dana 80 axle, but it appears all of them are only available with straps. Is there one available to use with u-bolts?
 
call keith @ overtime performance CNC 616-813-4313. i just got a billet 1480 yoke from him that he made. it is a BEAUTIFUL piece!! very stout. its a shame it has to go underneath the truck.
 
strange doesnt have them. i actually called them and thats who gave me the number for overtime.
 
Ok then MW & overtime, would have figured Strange would have been right on top of it ..

Don't think because it's u-bolts it can be made tighter.... 30ft lbs on the u-bolts, anymore and you distort the cap and ruin the joint
 
$250 for the yoke and it came with the nut he had machined to fit on there. i also had to cut the end of the pinion off.
 
exactly what the cowboy said about cutting the pinion off

dave-i got a pic of it on my phone ill send it to you cause i dont know how to get the picture on here haha

Why do they make you shave the pinion? What is the purpose? Why not have a yolk that will work without cutting the pinion. How much of the pinion needs shaved?
 
If i remember the numbers right my driveline guy said 3/8 and he would have had to make a new nut

I am not either as we have change a ring and pinion at the pull. I suppose you just have to shave the one your going to put in and keep it with ya.
