U-joint size?

[Jester]

Our stock u-joints are 1310 right? And I need 1350 for my Dodge divorced NP205? Or is it 1330? I have managed to confuse myself. How can I measure to find out?

Before I buy the conversion u-joints, I want to make sure I have it right.

Heres the specs you need so you can measure:

I am sure the M715's ar 1310...I think the NP205 uses 1350...

I would suggest getting 1310 yokes at NW driveline, they had them in stock when I got mine a couple years ago they were pretty reasonable I think, I dunno when you need them you need them.

You recommend that over the conversion u-joints? The cost for the yokes is substantial. Would eventually like to have 1410 all around. Was kinda just looking to "get by" for awhile.

Thanks. Good info for me to have bookmarked.

I didn't think they made conversion joints, that would definitly be a good lesser expensive option, I wanted to keep mine all U-bolt, definitly upgrade the differential side when you can.

Yes they make a conversion joint, it is spicer # 5-353X. I am using one of those joints to go from the Dodge transmission yoke, to spicer 1310 (what came stock in our trucks). I can't remember exactly how much they were, but it was under $15 if I recall. That is only if your Dodge NP205 truly is running a Dodge style joint (7260 or 7290), there is a possibility it is a 1310. There is a pretty big difference between a spicer and dodge joint though, they don't look the same.

It would be nice to have everything match, but if you want to go to 1410 later, then I would definately just throw a conversion joint in there for right now. There is nothing wrong with a conversion joint, they aren't weaker than a regular joint, per say. I plan on running the conversion joint in my rig for quite a while.

That would have saved me some money for sure, I think I paid about $45.00 a piece for the yokes, one usually gets new u-joints on a build anyway. I ran 1310's all around except where it exits the gearvendors, it's a 1410.

I have all the driveline yokes and one of the t-case yokes in the car. Gonna run up to the driveline shop today to see what I need. I have managed to really confuse myself as to what I need

Did you get the t case installed? Maybe you can have it finished up for this weekend?
