[Chevelle-list] 12 Bolt yoke

[Trooper]

I guess I should have justified that statement with: In my experience. I have 1 68 and 2 69 Chevelle 10 bolt open rears all U-bolts. The ones that came on my 2 69 SS's are 12 bolt posi's both have straps and are original to the cars.

  Dale, I wasn't trying to mislead Ryan with a "blanket statement". In my experience, I had never come across a 12 bolt that had straps. And I have come across more than one or two. But I haven't worked on one with a TH400. Learn something new everyday.

    Beware of blanket statements; u-bolts were not standard across the board.  The 67 driveshaft, u-joint mounting method, and rear pinion yoke flange was different on the TH400 than anything else in 67.  The TH400 used the strap/bolt arrangement where everything else used the u-bolt/nut arrangement.  I've seen the strap/bolt in a 69 AIM as well.

      Are most of you guys running a u bolt or strap style pinion yoke?  I guess I am not sure what 12 bolt Chevelles came with?  Mine didnt have one on it when I bought the housing and I guess I dont know.  I see a few on ebay that use the straps for the u joints.  Are all of them that way?  Chaulk this one up the rookie syndrome.  Again.

       

       

      Thank you

      Ryan
