What is the difference between 1330 and 1350 U-joint?

What is the difference between 1330 and 1350 U-joint?

The 1310 series u-joint measures approximately 3 1/4 inches wide. The 1330 and 1350 both measure approximately 3 5/8 wide. The 1350 series has a cap diameter of 1 3/16 inch and the body and journals are bigger than the 1310 or 1330.

How far should the yoke go into the transmission?

DD: The slip yoke should be able to go into the tailshaft of the transmission so the barrel is fully inside the seal. Then, pull out the yoke 1 inch. This is the correct amount of spline contact for the slip yoke.

Do driveshafts extend?

Drive shafts do compress and extend, but a common misconception is that they compress and extend to allow them to be a bit of a one size fits all. This is not the case. The reason they do is basically the same reason your shocks compress and extend.

How strong is a 1350 U joint?

2,200 lb-ft
The 1350 U-joint is rated for 2,200 lb-ft (minimum elastic limit) of torque. While the 1310 series, the stock size for most Jeeps, is rated for 1,600 lb-ft of torque.”

Are all 1310 U joints the same?

This allows you to mate a larger (or smaller) U-joint to the other. For example, you buy a new driveshaft that comes with 1350 weld-in yokes, but your car has 1310-sized yokes for the transmission and rear differential….U-Joint Sizes.

How far should yoke stick out of 700r4 transmission?

3/4″ to 1″ is normal.

What is a fixed yoke?

With a fixed yoke the yoke at the t-case is fixed in place (hence the name) and the driveshaft gets longer or shorter as the axle moves up and down. There are a couple advantages to a fixed yoke.

Can I use a longer slip yoke?

We never recommend installing a longer slip yoke when the shaft is actually too short for the application. Using one on a driveshaft that is actually too short for the application can lead to vibration and output shaft bushing failure. In extreme cases the internal spline can twist and bind up the slip movement.

Will a dent in a drive shaft cause a vibration?

A bent or damaged driveshaft can result in vehicle vibration. Driveshaft’s on rear-wheel vehilces the driveshaft will rotate two and a half to four times the speed of the wheels. Due to the relatively large size of the rear-wheel drive shafts and high speed, vibration is significantly increased.

Can a driveshaft be fixed?

Usually, the Drive Shaft Repair costs will differ based on what caused the issue and how fast it can be repaired. If you just have to replace it, that would be anywhere from $500 to $1000. However, you can also expect the cost of the parts to be around half that number and the labor costs around $200.
