I couldn't stand it. I used to want to dry gulch him every time he typed, then I've been okay with it for a few years, now with that, **** I was pissed just reading
I had to respond
holy fawking ****, what happened. Anyway, just skimming this, I'm wondering wtf dustin is saying. I'm a yard guy. when I buy at teh store, its spicer stuff from my local spicer dealer unless I buy from jess. Off the shelf or oem ****. In my experience, the **** I find in the yard, the weld yokes on 1410 shafts are a WAY deeper throat. This is on old ford and other 1ton plus sized stuff. teh joint isn't the consideration, its the yoke. the weld yoke or slip yoke isn't the only consideration. both of them have more throat, thus more angle. I've not seen any of my chevies come with 1350 and get much more than 20 straight from GM. someone said earlier they took the slip yoke off their shaft and slid another 1410 on. they got more angle. Im inclined to agree with this as I have done it many times. I can go in teh shop tommorrow and grab a 1410 yoke off a deuce, an old 1 ton and others that have huge angle capability, and grab 5 other 1350's that have less.
the other half of the equation that I referred to is the pinion and tcase yoke. I bought a spicer unit from jess in a 1410 variety the other day. still have it on the bench. It looked like the other 20 I've bought from him for customers. is it modified? yes. he mills flat on the back and puts ubolts in. altered? yes. so as to increase angle? no. the rough casting is still on the throat clearance where the other cap will bottom when at full angle. I've also bought a 1350 yoke from jess. it also says spicer on it, is "modified" for ubolts but not for angle, and has a far shallower throat. by this I mean that the inner cap radius cross line to throat depth is less dimensionally than on a 1410. both are from him, both are in my possesions and both are spicer parts unaltered for angle. In the table twice posted it points out that 1350s are in the 20 range and 1410 yokes are in teh 30 range in stock trim. (way more with a little effort). If need be and if I check this tomorrow, I'll go show you the diff in depth from cap relief by the pinion nut (throat as I'm calling it) to inner cap radius. the 1410 is deeper on all of mine* (I don't own them all, just j/y stuff)
also I have some 1410 stuff from yards that are spicer **** with 2.125 tubes. looks to be from the 60's, but I have them
Original poster. Yes, that would be the ****. there aren't many lengths an intermediate needs to be, lets say anywhere from the smallest dimensionally possible with any slip, what like, 8" or 10, clear up to 20", it would be fairly easy to make one on the shelf with a carrier on it for every inch in between. 12 shafts in your line? Most I see running cast pillow block bearings. we have had a bad experience with this in xrra this year, it shattered when we came down on it and wrapped up every system while the shaft flopped. Not good. If someone had a good pillow block with a few shaft choices, that's be pimp. guess I need to find out the PN/s on the 2 1410 2 piece shafts I lucked on to in the yard
