What can I upgrade now?
I have my 8 1/4 now in my 73 Duster. I have a 8 1/4 driveshaft thats the right length, but its bent and I do not want to use it, since it is quite a bit larger in diameter for some reason. Every small block car I have had has always had about the same general diameter for the ds.
I am going to take them both to the driveline shop (7 1/4 unit and 8 1/4) on Monday and have them compare the two and shorten the 7 1/4 down to size and rebalance.
My question involves the u-joints. My 7 1/4 shaft has good u's on it currently and I would like to reuse them. Should they match up with the yoke on the 8 1/4 rear, or is there different sizes?
