title says it all. I'm looking for 1350 CVs in a junkyard, but not quite sure what they will be in. I know 1 ton GMs don't have them, so Ford and maybe Dodge are the only choices. How do you tell if they are 1350s?? Do they measure the same as 1350 u-joints?

Front shaft on an Ford Expedition. Might be the same on a navigator.. Its a Flanged style CV

what about older Fords? Buddy owns a junkyard and has a couple older 3/4 tons, that I can probly get for nothing, just have to pull them. One is a 76-77 with a divorced 203, but the CVs look kinda small, and the other was a mid 80s, but don't know what tranny/case it has.

I dont believe you will have much luck finding a 1350 cv in the older stuff, but im not sure

A local yard here charges about $10 LESS than what a new part costs, and don't really want to give them any business. There are a couple other places that I can try, and might have to talk to my "contact" at the driveshaft place just down the road. This is about all I need to get my truck driving, after working on it for over a year and a half now. Thanx for the info!! :beer:
