A friend of mine needs a fine spline third member flange that will bolt up to his 72 three speed drive lines or one that is round that can be drilled for the other bolt pattern, his is square, we are trying to get the cruiser ready for wheelin next weekend so please help someone local must have one they will sell.
Thanks

Specter list them on their web site. No stock flanges with that configuration exist as far as I know.

Why not drill the drill the round flange on the newer diff (that's what you've got, right?) to match the bolt pattern of the older driveshaft flange?

Someone suggested that to me. I've never tried it but it sounds like it would work.

His is square, he needs a round one,

I looked on Spectors sight and they list one for a 67-74 fine spline, wouldn't that be the right one?

Yep thats the one. Call them if you have any doubts, but they provide them for guys who have done a ring and pinion swap and have older Cruisers. All new (aftermarket/replacements) R&P's are fine spline.

An alternative is a mini or later round flange that you would redrill (as suggested above). I can't see how you could redrill the stock square one.

I got my round fine spline flange from TPI Landcruiser. I think the part # is 41204 it came with 2 bolt patterns drilled into it already. Just make sure and give them the spline count. :D:D:D
