Slip Yokes

What should you know to find a replacement for a slip yoke?

Your yoke is part of a driveshaft “series”. By measuring the distance across the ears of the yoke (Dimension "E" in the first diagram below) you can identify your yoke as part of a series. (The length across the U-joint bearing caps will equal "E" when attached with bearing plates (BP) and will be slightly less than "E" when attached with outside snap rings (OSR).
Spline outside diameter (OD) and the number of splines.
Length of the yoke measured from the end of the splines to the C/L of the bearing holes. See dimension "J" in diagrams below.
If the yoke is used for a transmission end, then you also need to know the hub diameter.

The Spicer catalogue lists the above dimensions as well as a few additional ones. See the full Spicer catalogue or call our parts specialists to learn the exact features of any part or determine what alternatives you might have for a replacement part.

Dimensions for Slip Yoke designed to attach the transmission

About slip yokes currently in stock listed below.

The length of the yoke is the “J” dimension (above). The method of attachment to the u-joint is ISR (inside snap ring), OSR (outside snap ring), or BP (bearing plate). The bearing strap method is not shown. The most common complimentary u-joint part number is shown.

All slip yokes are for use as part of a drive shaft unless “transmission use” is noted. The spline measurement includes outside diameter and number of splines.

*The 1000 series is unique in using inside snap rings and a critical dimension is the 1.5" between the snap rings rather than across the yoke ears.
