Broken parts - quick scab togeather fix? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

1997 GMC sas
79 ford 44 up front
241C transfer case with regular yoke output (maybe S-44)

I'd like to build something to go out with this weekend. I'll order some heavy duty shit asap, but for now I need to go play. I broke the square shaft that was in it. so now I'm thinking a 73-87 front shaft (cv style) cut to fit is a cheap ticket seeing as how I may have one for free. The question is how to adapt it to the T- case.

Any thoughts?

nothing so far I see.

I wonder if it's possible that the flange on the '94 and older trucks including that late 80's truck with the P-drop 241 might adapt that shaft to that T-case.

The older flange yokes bolt right in place of the S44 yokes. The flange yoke would be the same bolt pattern as the old driveshaft. Just don't get the the taller flange yokes used on the newer 241's, they use a different, longer, front output shaft.

I can get my hands on a shaft like this
Ebay

And a flange like this

Is this the long one to avoid?

Here's another shot

I hope I'm thinking of the same parts as you were. This might come together by the weekend after all.

Thanks!

That would be the long flange, not going to work unless you swap output shafts.

Well, shit.

I wonder what application the short one comes from.

I've been pulling them from 88-91 241's from V series rigs.
