Dana 27 Front Driveshaft Discussion...

I have to disagree about all f4 jeeps having 1310s in the front shaft. My 67 and other 66+ CJ5s I have seen had the small ujoints, just like the v6 models. Which means that yes Wheelie, f4 and v6 jeeps would use the same D27 yoke.

 

That's part of what was confounding me.

 

Interesting. I don't recall ever seeing a I4 with the small yoke. Something else to watch for.

Good news is that, after work, I stopped by to check on my front axle that's being set up for me. I measured the yoke I gave him and, it appears to be the correct Dana 27 yoke. Measures about 3 1/4 in height and looks like the longer one in Nick's picture. I wasn't sure what I gave him and was worried that I put a dana 44 or 30 yoke in the box, at the time having no knowledge of the difference in length.

I love being a part of this site and learning all the cool things you guys know. Thanks.

 

I have never seen an f head 5 with the small joints. But you can never say never with Jeep.

 

I know I’m replying to an old post but I’m wrestling with this problem now. I have a 1966 Dana 27 front axle from a CJ5 with V6 engine. I’m trying to mate this with a Dana 18 transfer case/transmission from a 4 cylinder 1946 Willys. I have the front driveshafts from both vehicles but one has 1310 joints at both ends and the other has the smaller 1100 joints at both ends. I also have the front axle yokes from both vehicles. What do I need to do to mate the 66 small joint axle with the 46 large joint transfer case/transmission?
