First off I have a 70 runner w hemi manual trans and dana 60- I just received a slip yoke from strange- The universal joint mount ears on the slip yoke are bigger than the ones on the driveline- So i need a u joint that will work- the factory ones will not-
i Started to research conversion joints which i found a couple -- one is SPICER # 5-460x - But the yoke has outside snap ring grooves and the factory 51 in driveline needs inside snap rings-and grooved cap ????? So a u joint with different size caps and inside snap rings for the smaller caps going on the driveline and bigger caps for the yoke w outside snap ring groves.
can anyone give me the correct u joint ? or do i have to send this Strange yoke back and get a mopar one? Thanks!!
 
You likely need Detroit 7290 to Spicer 1350 conversion u joint but take measurements to confirm. Order through your local auto parts store in case you need to return it. You can also call Strange, they will likely know exactly what you need.

Agree, detroit 7290 would be correct, the conversion depends on the new yolk most likely spicer 1350 its a bit stronger for sure.
