pulled foam from fuel cell and cleaned that out.  fuel was red, thinking kerosene was in it or off road diesel?

Added a bulkhead fitting with a rollover vent i had. ordered 8AN to 3/8ths barb fittings. 

Thinking im going to get a fuel pump, front drive shaft shortened and cobbled steering on this hawg to get her moving on her own at least.

ebay fuel pressure regulator was a joke, leaks from every interface, doesnt regulate pressure at all. 

dead headed plumbed in a buggy pump and got it running by key (fuel pump heats up quick)


looked at drive shafts and started on steering.

front dana60 ford low pinion ball joint axle

yoke is for 1330 "big cap". 

i don't understand how the ujoint is retained in the yoke side to side?  is there some ford magic hidden from the internet?  i see summit has girdle caps with tabs but they are to replace ujoint ubolts-  this yoke has threaded holes for straps?  its like i need a strap with a tab on the side to hold the caps centered?  doesn't appear to have any tabs broken off the yoke


anyone kknow whats up?

If it's low pinion and driver drop, it's likely a Dodge 2nd gen axle. Ford never did LP and ball joint that I'm aware of.

I believe that style yoke uses circlips on the caps that retain them against the inside of the yoke. I vaguely remember something like that with my 12 valve. Weird design.

ah, i get it.  scrapped at some goo and i guess there is a machined surface there

this looks to fit the bill with the measurements in the notes

Its not ford lol.

look like dodge ram dana 60 via CAD

the u-joint have clips to keep it retained side to side, like axle shaft wheel u-joints

OEM is "Detroit 7290", per RockAuto

ya im needing a conversion joint for the front to just use the ZJ shaft after i shorten it and sleeve it with 2" 120wall DOM

Moog 372 is the right  1310 to 1330 big cap with internal C clips i found what i need to be least amount of pain and investemnt.  not worth a drive to ridge road to pay 2$ more than amazon will have one to my door in 2 days. 



sorry not a ford or dodge front end expert i just remember nick saying something about Ford.

Could just gut the housing and lock the collar over both shafts and be done for free for a bit.

I honestly don’t know how often those break.

I did some research on CAD deletion on my truck a while ago and found that 99-04 Ford D50/D60 passenger side inner, 78-79 Ford D60 driver side inner are very close to correct length, close enough that I was willing try them if I didn't buy Yukon's full delete kit.

D50 use 30 spline if you're not going to swap out side gears from 30 to 35 spline in whatever carrier it have. problem is the passenger side inner axle shaft seal. I have not had my dodge d60's carrier out for several years now, cannot recall what it look like on inside on what off-the-shelf seal possibly will work to keep the cost down.

edit: that yukon's inner axle shaft seal is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. more than what I'll want to pay for them. about $100 each. https://www.yukongear.com/productdetails.aspx?ProdID=12135

I have 2 of those dodge axles on the shelf. mule (95 v10 srw) and dumpbus (97 cummins dually). both should be full of lube so no easier than what's under the jeep now.
