Rear Yoke Upgrade?

Hey guys,

I just blew a rear u-joint, and took out the rear yoke on the diff at the same time. I'd like to ditch the straps and use u-bolts instead. Anyone sell this style of yoke for our trucks? I've been searching the internet, but haven't found anything yet, so I thought I'd ask here.

Thanks guys!

They sell a flat flange for it. It's stock for the newer SD

Problem solved, I was able to get High Angle Driveline to custom machine a yoke to accept u-bolts.

That's pretty slick!

If I had enough power to blow apart u-joints (or a manual trans and a lead foot), I'd probably do something like that...

I just upgraded mine to 1480 yokes and a one piece driveshaft. That was one of the only options I found after blowing 2 pulling this year
