to figure out what trans slip yoke do i have to get to mate my 46re to the bigger driveshaft since the back u joints are bigger?

 

Get a hybrid u-joint to adapt the larger shaft to the smaller yoke on the trans end.

 

yeah, well they have a spicer piece that goes from the trans to have the bigger u joints on it which m y friend has but idk what piece it is

 

Call Riverside Gear. Tell them what you have, and they can get you what you need. I would suggest getting the slip yoke that fits your trans, but, accepts the larger U-joint.

 

yeah thats what im looking for. the slip joint for my 46re with the capability for the bigger u joints.

 

You may want to get the axle in and measure for drive-line length. If I'm not mistaken, you will have to shorten it a bit since the diff is so much larger. If thats the case, just have them weld on the appropriate yokes.

Or are you using the the shaft that came with the axle? Is the truck it is coming from the same configuration (extended cab short box)?


What are you doing about the front? Throwing in a 60, or running mismatched wheels?

 

the truck i got it off was a single cab i believe, and no im running mismatched wheels for about a month or two til i find a 60 and get it in there lol, im going to look into custom driveshafts or try and find a driveshaft from a truck
