hack and tap slip yoke - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

mr.tech · 03-21-2005, 08:10 PM

My friend and I are going to start a build up on his 92 jeep YJ. our plans are to do a spring over and shackle flip. he wants to put some 35's so we will probly put some toy axles under it plus a rear locker.

with as much lift as he wants I figure that we will need a SYE but the cheepest one I have found was $300. this build is on a real cheep budget $2500 for the hole thing so if we scrouge for parts we may be able to do this.

my real Q is what is needed to do a hack and tap on an NP231? if you can post some picks of what was needed to do it and the process.

thanks

you need the kit from rubicon express.

i run one and it hasnt let me down yet. but i did break a stock output shaft on a different Tcase before so its really not an upgrade in strength, just lets you use a cv shaft to reduce drivetrain vibes.

suck it up and get the HD SYE

mr.tech · 03-21-2005, 08:18 PM

how much was yours and was it easy to install with the t-case in the rig or did you have to pull it. the reason I ask is because the is realy up tight about his rig and isnt even sure he vants to do a spring over.

PS I did a serch and came up with nothing so dont start with that shit.

well this should be in newbie section anyway but i guess since im here i'll help ya out.

i dont knwo the price but it is on RE's website. google is your friend.

second its easy to do in teh rig. to get a good straight cut, remove teh rear drive shaft adn make sure the tcase is in 2wd. or jsut take out both dshafts to be safe. crank the engine up and put the trans in gear. probably doesnt matter which gear. with the output shaft spinning use a cutoff wheel on a grinder to make the cut. put the flange on adn center punch that fucker as close to dead center as possible, then carefully drill and tap it.

ok I thought this would be a bit above nebies

gumbojeepyj · 03-21-2005, 08:40 PM

not really, not on this board.

mr.tech · 03-21-2005, 08:48 PM

ok thanks for the help and I will keep that in mind for next time.

if any one has any pix I would be very interested.

2500 bucks for SOA and SYE? You arent gonna do it right for that kind of money.. "RIGHT" includes regearing the axles, and you might as well lock them if you are going in there.. then you'll need bigger tires and different wheels...

i did a RE kit on my jeep about 4 years ago ran it for 2 years with 35's and welded spyders in the stock axles. i never broke it. and yes you can do it with the t-case in the jeep.

mr.tech · 03-21-2005, 09:38 PM

well i have a lead on some toy axles for $350
ring and pinion $180 for each axle
tires are $880
wheels free got them
shocks are $200
SYE ? price
mics. stuff $200
weld the rear free
drive shafts $250 each
total $2490

so as you can see we dont have the $ for an SYE

MudTJ · 03-21-2005, 10:19 PM

BTW performanceoffroadcenter.com has a HD SYE for $170. I have it and it works great. Now build that shit and tell us about it when its done...

lmagee · 03-21-2005, 11:12 PM

all this is fine and dandy, but how are you gonna run passenger drop yota axles with the stock driver drop t-case?

Booyah! how the hell did i miss that?

how about a 3 piece driveshaft and two pilliow blocks

mr.tech · 03-22-2005, 08:47 AM

Damn.... I thought they were driver drop when I looked at them oh well I guess he needs to find some more $ for this build. LOL

OlyWaXJ · 03-22-2005, 08:58 AM

Well if he has a 23 spline output shaft on the trans he could run a D300.
It'll take a lil drilling on the adaptor but then there is no need for a SYE and he'd only be out another $200 or so.

yup, if you can get the toy axles, with 410's for cheap, run em, and buy a D300, and reroute the exhaust.
