That's not exactly the same situation if you're sourcing parts off of a completely different vehicle.
My point is... if you're trying to hack together an SYE, the first option any logical person is going to consider is reusing anything that's already on the jeep.

Here's the problem with your idea OP. The yoke off of the 8.25 attaches to the DS by u-joint straps. The end of the front DS that would attach to the t-case is a CV joint. They aren't compatible. Search over on NAXJA about using a TH350 yoke. Depending on who you know, you can use that and put together a HnT SYE for under 100 bucks.

If I wanted to spend 60 bucks I would just buy the Turbo 350 yoke. I can't find any in the pick and pull yard, the other yards will only sell the shaft. If I can't get the 8.25 yoke to work then so be it.
