Just for info purposes. I got My U-bolt conversion 8.25 yoke from justdifferentials.com. It was pretty pricey but very well made. They don't show them on the site. You have to ask about them.

Ya but you can mod it for the cost of the u bolts and a drill bit.

or a **** poor pinion angle... I mean you have maybe 180 or less rwhp... leys be real here

Old u joint plus some decent angle. My pinion is set 2* lower then the angle of the t case. Fact is it happens. And with big tires on stock gears they take a lot of extra stress.

yeah the biggest problem is angle
