It's been a cold couple of months, haven't done much but try to stay warm. Did some calculating on the angles for the rear drive shaft. 18 degrees, Jess at High Angle Driveline said that will work so I orderd a high angle shaft with 1310 CV and 1350 pinion yoke. Sweeet, today the temp will be in the teens "above" zero so I'll install it!
		Big size deference between the 1310 and the 1350 u joints. The yokes shown above are both new, the 1350 (one ton) is to replace the old 1310 pinion u joint, and the other one is the 1310 CV yoke for the transfer case. Had a heck of a time getting the pinion nut off but got it with the help of a breaker bar and a huge pipe wrench to hold the yoke. Pinion seal was leaking bad so I replaced it. I tried to order a tranny mount with no luck so I went to work making one. A flat piece of 1" x 1/4" x 5" served as the main part to which I attched two layers of 1/2 conveyer belt above the cross member and one layer below the cross member with a collar, bolt, and washer bolted to a nut welded on the main piece which was bolted to the adapter plate. The new mount should work well as it will only hold the weight of the rear of the drive trane.  The torque is restrained with a second mount off to the side by the front output. I relocated the shock mounts on the dana 60, mounted them closer together for a little better articulation. Fabricated upper mounts to bolt to the frame and will reuse the stock shocks. The new drive shaft angle is such that I cannot droop too much, I will have to concentrate on compression as the main source of articulation. Mounted the fuel cell between the rear frame rails over the rear axle. There's at least 12 inches between the cell and the top of the rear diff.
