I don't have the p/n for the conversion joint anymore but I bet enemy still has a box or a p/n so you'll have to ask him
Anybody thought about using 91+ Cherokee Stubs, U-Joints, and Unit Bearings? 27 spline stub with a 297X joint... Seems easy enough to fab up some old drive-lines with slip shafts for axles, and have some adapters made for the other end for your cassette or whatever setup you've got. Hell use the Jeep outer half with a u joint, turn down the shaft a little, weld it into your slip shaft, turn down a type 4 or 930 axle, weld it in the other end of your slip shaft, stick it in your type 4 or 930 CV, bolt it up? U joint outer with easy high angle outers, plunging, and it can still mate up to your transaxle.
that is what we have been talking about with p/n#'s and have been using for several years now.
Sorry man. Didn't even see your post. Guess I should've read it all and not just skimmed. Just got a little excited! There are PILES of Cherocar parts here in Central Oregon, and shafts are about $15 each at the yards here. Most have brand new bearings, brakes, and joints. Cash for clunkers effects years later... Myself, I'd get two long side shafts, cut and machine them down to slip into a slip shaft section. Just rosette weld the slip shaft onto the axle shaft. The chassis end of the shafts would need to be figured out by the end user based on their needs as you said. Just trying to help...
Crazy Fast Fab, Im in the same boat looking to build a Ujoint axle setup. I have researched different ideas and ways of going about it but cant seem to pinpoint much Off The Shelf stuff. Its mostly custom built setups, which is fine with me if I can figure out what are the best parts to go about setting up.Im running a 35 HP Briggs V to an RPM Transfer case so its not a ton of horsepower to be worrying about. But it would be nice to set it up to maybe throw in a 600+cc Motorcycle engine in the future. I have 930 inner joints and I'd have to build new trailing arms with most likely Intrepid hubs and 930 Micros. I have yet to find an off the shelf 1310 yoke that has a 930 bolt up flange. Driveshaft Superstore sells a 1310 and 1350 buggy axle setup with 7 inches of plunge for 550-650 for the pair along with Ujoints and 930 flanges.They also sell weldable 1310 yokes for 2" and 3" which I thought I could have some flanges plasma cut out with 930 bolt pattern, then weld the 1310 yokes to it. Then I could get 2 early Toyota 4x4 Front Driveshafts and take them to my local Driveshaft shop and have them cut and welded to length. Ive read about someone using Toyota driveshafts but Im not sure what the plunge is yet on them.
