2626-31 – Weld Yokes – 7260 Series – Butt Dia 2.844″ – Tube Dia Wall 3.000X0.083

Weld yoke selection comes down to two things: tube diameter and series. The 2626-31 weld yoke is dimensioned for one specific tube OD and one u-joint series. Everything else — material, finish, weight — comes after you've confirmed those two numbers match your application.

2626-31 Weld Yoke — Tube Fit & Steel Specs

The 7260 series covers GM light trucks and vans using the Dana 7260 cross pattern. The 2626-31 weld yoke specs: fits 3.000X0.083 tube | 2.844" butt dia | 1.625" center-to-weld. Steel construction — DOM-compatible, full-penetration weld ready, standard for high-torque driveshaft applications. Center-to-weld dimension is critical for total shaft length calculations — it's the distance consumed by this yoke on that end of the tube.

Measure your tube OD before cutting and welding the 2626-31 weld yoke. Tack it in place first, check runout is within 0.005" before committing to full weld. A slight off-angle tack that gets welded solid will show up as vibration at 50+ mph that no balancer can fully correct.
