12 bolt pinion yoke
I have ran into a snag installing my 12 bolt O rear. My old rear used straps and bolts to retain the u-joint, the yoke is threaded.
It appears my new rear uses U-bolts to retain the ujoints with nuts on the back side....the yoke is not threaded. From what I can tell this is a difference between spicer and saginaw pinion yokes. Changing the pinion yoke is out of the question .
Where can I get the proper U bolts? I'm not going to use some cheap hardware store ubolt. Any Ideas? Photos coming.....
