U joint saddle bolts
I 've got 71 or 72 rear end (5 lug) and I've got 1310 u joint on the driveshaft. The yoke on the rear end is threaded so it's a two piece saddle, not a u bolt. All I can find is saddles that come with small maybe 1/4 inch bolts and they are to short also. Does anybody know the part number for the saddles I need? I've got a different rear end that takes the u bolts could I just swap the front yokes or will this screw up the alignment of the gears? Thanks
