Default Dakota rear wheel drive yoke

I'm wondering if a 93 dodge dakota rear axle yoke is interchangeable with a 98 dodge dakota, both are rear wheel drive, if not what can be interchanged???

no, because they are different axles. 1st gens got the 7.25. 2nd gens got the 8.25

mine has a 9.25 yoke, but there's still the question of if there is another vehicle that it can be interchanged with, mine's a sport

anything with a corporate 9.25 axle. look in the gloveboxes of the donor vehicles.

if yours is the 9.25 axle, ram 1500's will be your best bet.

well i ordered a yoke of Ebay and it was labeled on the site 9.25 and when it showed up the box said it was a 8.75 yoke so i tried it and i found out that it was to big so i'm pretty sure that it's a 8.25 yoke and its a 27or 28 spline(can remember exactly) buts it a 5 speed manual rear wheel drive so i was wondering if a late 90's or early 2000's Durango 4x4 rear axle yoke would work, the yoke of Ebay that i ordered was from a differential shop from Washington, D.C. and i don't think they'll swap it, but there's a Durango in my local junk yard that still has that yoke on it, if it can be changed out i would like to know

thanks

Only 4 cylinder 1st gens got 7.25s.... And 2nd gens got both 8.25 and 9.25, the 9.25 is more common.
