I have my 8.8 rear end in and all I have to do is bolt up the drive shaft. I cannot seem to find the correct conversion u joint. I know that the stock one is a 1310 from reading other forums.
I have the flang from a fox body to bolt to the rear pinion. Does anyone here know which conversion joint i need.

i am to a driveline shop tomorrow and i am sure they will ave it but i dont want to get raped. If i can get one at a parts house i would be happier.

 

For my T5 yoke to V8 driveshaft I had to use a 1310 to 1330 converison u-joint.

 

If the connector to the 8.8 is larger, then yeah, it's probably 1310-1330.

 

why would a driveline shop be more expensive than a part house. I wouldn't buy it myself if I'd be going there anyhway. might just waste your money getting the wrong one

 

I know shops round here a**rape everyone. I have had to replace u joint on my ranger. The part from the local auto store was 10 bucks, however I couldnt get the old one out. I ended up taking it to a shop, iirc they charged me 40 for the same damn thing +labor of course. Its kind of sad to know that shops get discount parts than mark them up like 3times as they install them.

 

that really is sad. however there's a huge price range between u-joints. you can get a precision for 8.25$ and a TCI for 33$ ...

 

I get Spicers from a driveline shop in Bako for like $10-20.

 

well i need a 1310 to a 1330 conversion joint but i need the 1310 side to be one with the inside locking clips. the ones that i have found are only outside clips.

 

Glazier Nolan has "G06546 Conversion Universal Joint, connects 25 spline slip yoke with 1 1/16” external clips to 28 spline style driveshaft with 1” internal clips" I'm sure if you contacted them they'd verify any measurement you'd like.
