Looking for a coarse spline pinion yoke with 7260 u joints for my spare 741 pumpkin .

Just an update that I have take the dust collar off and so far I made it to 100# before I ran out of time. No rubbing or binding. Will try and go to 150# tonight. That's all my torque wrench will go to.

Forgot to add even when I put the original yoke on it and torque it to only 50 # it won't turn easily. 100# and it won't turn at all. I will try to remove the dust shield

The rear chunk/ pumpkin is a 741 case and I took the yoke off of another 741 case. Both pumpkins are setup from the factory both had between 50-65 thousand miles on them. The pumpkin. I am having issues with has the right set of gears(3.23) in it. My spare pumpkin is highway gears. I am...

Pinion nut was tight prior to removal. Used an impact to remove it. Yes, it tightens now till the dust shield touches.

Yep, I will be taking it apart. 50# on the torque wrench and yep its too tight.

Thanks john-9 I will give it a try

Need a blower motor switch for my 72 dart.

Are you sure its circulating? I had an issue like yours and when I pulled off the return line I wasn't getting any fluid out. The nipple on the return side of your power steering gearbox has a ball and spring assembly inside of it and is it gets stuck/seized the fluid doesn't flow properly.

Thanks for the replies. I actually tried swapping them around and it was obvious they are on correctly
