Re: Couple T221 questions

Like you I figured I could use some bronze bushings and Heims to tighten it all up, but looks like maybe it need’s the slop to work right. Just wondering if anyone has tried it and made it work.

Can’t remember what part of the Power Wagon shaft broke, but know it was more than just a U joint, as I could have fixed that myself. As I recall it cost me more than a hundred bucks to have fixed at a drive shaft shop, which back in the 70’s was about a weeks pay, ouch!

Unfortunately the large yolk outputs of both the transfer and trans have the drive for the speedometer cable, so aren’t interchangeable with the input. What I was hoping for was a 1350 yolk that would fit in place of the 1310 input, but maybe such a thing doesn’t exist. Of course the stub shaft would have to be custom made, but I have a spare that could be modified.

Thanks for the reply
Tom
