Finish Off Your 9-inch Build with Our Forged Carbon Steel Short Pinion Yoke
Between the factory’s 9-inch rear end offerings from the 1950s through the 1980s, along with the wide selection of aftermarket 9-inch axle housings for just about anything on the road with four wheels, the 9-inch aftermarket is abundant with most any parts you’ll need. From minor servicing of bearings and seals to a replacement differential or gear ratio change, all the way to building a full flange-to-flange 9-inch axle for your project, Speedway Motors has what you need to get your 9-inch rehab or new build completed.
One item that is often an afterthought is the Ford 9-inch yoke. However, when you think about it, the 9-inch Ford yoke is the first part of the 9-inch axle to receive all that twisting torque from your engine and transmission up front. It doesn’t matter how strong a differential you have, or if you’re using a nodular case with a Daytona pinion support if your 9-inch Ford yoke is some 50-year-old factory piece that has no doubt seen better days. Why not upgrade your Ford 9-inch yoke along with your other 9-inch upgrades for peace of mind knowing your 9-inch can take the abuse your engine and trans is sending down the driveshaft? Our forged carbon steel 28-spline pinion yoke is the perfect solution!
Skip The Swap Meet Search and Upgrade Your Ford 9-inch With Our New Pinion Yoke
Factory Ford 9-inch pinion yokes have seen a lot over the years and can often be out of spec, creating play in the pinion gear splines or in the U-joint mounting area. Grabbing a used 9-inch Ford yoke from a swap meet table or a junk yard, even if it visually appears OK, is just asking for problems. This is especially true if you’re completely rebuilding your 9-inch with upgrades to support more horsepower. Do yourself a favor and skip the used parts and add one of our forged carbon steel short 9-inch Ford yokes to your shopping list.
These super strong pinion yokes feature the correct dimensions for use with popular 9-inch ring and pinion sets that utilize a 28-spline 1.218-inch diameter pinion gear. While Ford originally specified different pinion yokes for standard and Daytona pinion supports, we have machined our 28-spline 4-inch yoke with a slightly shorter spline relief. This relief cut allows our Ford 9-inch yoke to work for either application without any other changes or machine work. We’ve also ensured compatibility with the majority of OEM 9-inch applications by retaining the 1310 U-joint dimensions. Simply add a 1310 U-joint strap kit (AKA Ford 9-inch U-bolts), and a fresh pinion nut along with your choice of crush sleeve or solid spacer and give your 9-inch the best shot at handling whatever you throw at it.
