Time to build a new rear shaft and ditch the 1350 stuff.

Just got my 1410 14B yoke, 1410 tube yoke for driveshaft, just got a piece of 2" .120 tube from d and r, and went to Weller yesterday and snagged a 1410 driveshaft from a super duty for $28 :woot:. Just need to get the male slip machined down to fit the tube and ready to go.

Yea I was thinking the same thing.need more beef john.
 
Mine are ~.275 wall sch.40 structural pipe....they have taken some pretty severe beatings and are still straight. I think i only paid like ~40$ for enough to do two shafts.
 
Looking good John!!! :thumb:
 
The yokes are make to fit .120. I think you should sleeve the inside with some 1.75dia .120 dom.
Or just bore thicker wall to depth. I agree that .120 (or in Beefy's case 1/8) is too thin.

On the other hand John, I thought you wanted a lightweight buggy. I'm thinking something like .060 wall.:teehee:
 
1/4 wall at the least and bore it to fit the yokes.
 
Its 13 bucks a foot for 1/4 wall 2 inch Dom.
 
sure do like all there drivetrain stuff. :thumb: they have 1480 yokes for t cases and 14 bolts in stock! if we break this 1410 stuff john we gotta step up to tim Cameron stuff...( he had all 1480 stuff on the last 2 buggys.):sonicjay:

I haven't been breaking 1350 stuff. But when I grabbed my driveshaft from the junkyard Tuesday, they did have a ford super duty dually with the 1480 jointed shaft still in it.
 
you should of grabbed it and stashed it away...those are hard to find.
