The difference in centerline-to-weld between the 2526-253, 3626-252, 3126-253, and 3126-108 corresponds to different CV centering socket designs — each companion socket set requires a specific weld yoke geometry to achieve correct operating angles. Ordering the wrong weld yoke number will produce incorrect CV socket depth engagement even if the tube diameter matches. Always order the weld yoke and CV socket kit as a matched set using the companion part numbers listed: 2552-1002 and 2553-252. This weld yoke accepts the same 2.344″ butt diameter as the related CVJ variants, so tube preparation is identical across the series.

This additional distance is specified because the companion CV centering socket (3152-1081) has a longer body depth that requires the weld joint to be set back further to maintain the correct assembly geometry. Mixing weld yokes across companion-part sets will result in incorrect CV centering socket preload and joint operating angle, producing vibration that worsens with suspension travel.Complete assembly requires CVJ socket 3152-1081 and front tube yoke 3153-1081 in addition to this weld yoke. The 2.500″ x 0.083″ tube specification is common across multiple OEM and aftermarket driveshaft applications — confirm the existing driveshaft tube OD and wall before ordering. At 2.344″ butt diameter, self-centering in the tube bore is achieved with minimal clearance; ensure the tube bore is free of corrosion scale or weld splatter from previous repairs before inserting the new yoke for tacking. Pair with a CV joint kit for the complete assembly.

This extra distance benefits heat management during welding — the U-joint trunnion hardness can be degraded if weld heat propagates within 1.000″ of the trunnion journal. Always allow the weld zone to cool below 150 degrees F before pressing the U-joint into the yoke ears on a CVJ weld yoke assembly.

It must be used in combination with CV centering socket 2752-941 and CV front tube yoke 3653-252. Ordering the weld yoke alone without the companion CV components will not complete a functional assembly — verify all three part numbers are in hand before beginning fabrication.The 3626-252 is a CVJ-series weld yoke designed for use in constant-velocity driveshaft assemblies where one end of the shaft requires a CV joint to cancel operating-angle velocity variations. The 2.500″ tube at 0.083″ wall is a standard light-truck and passenger-car driveshaft specification. The 2.344″ butt diameter creates a 0.156″ diametral clearance (0.078″ per side) with the tube bore — a deliberate loose pilot that accommodates the slightly oversized taper-bore that CVJ-series tubes use. Tack-weld with the butt fully seated before final welding. The companion CV joint components (2752-941 and 3653-252) must be sourced and installed per the CVJ assembly manual, including correct centering ball preload, to ensure the CV mechanism functions as designed.

The 1551-20 series is a light-duty specification used on Mazda passenger cars and compact trucks. Specific model fitment should be confirmed against your Mazda application’s driveshaft tube OD and wall thickness.Q: How does the 2.375″ butt diameter relate to the 2.500″ tube OD?A: The butt diameter is the OD of the yoke’s stepped pilot section that inserts into the tube bore. The 0.125″ step-down (2.500″ tube OD minus 2.375″ butt) equals a 0.065″ wall thickness on each side — the pilot fills the bore precisely, self-centering the yoke before tack welding. This is the standard bore-to-pilot relationship for a flush-weld yoke design.Q: Can I substitute a 7260-series yoke for the 1551-20 on a Mazda shaft?A: Not directly — the 1551-20 U-joint cap diameter is sized differently than the 7260 series. The U-joint cap bore in the yoke ears must match the cap OD of the U-joint being installed. Using a mismatched series yoke with a different-series U-joint will cause the caps to either rattle loose or bind, accelerating needle bearing failure within weeks of service.

The 2.877″ butt diameter is specific to KIA’s tube-to-yoke interface geometry and provides the concentricity reference that keeps the driveshaft assembly within factory balance tolerance after welding. The 1.625″ centerline-to-weld is compact, which places the weld close to the U-joint centerline — this is intentional in OEM designs that package the driveshaft in tight underbody clearances.OE series — OEM-geometry replacement; not a universal fitment3.000″ x 0.065″ tube — thin-wall small-diameter; matches KIA’s light-duty driveshaft specification2.877″ butt diameter — confirm tube bore is clean and round before inserting yoke for tack welding1.625″ CL-to-weld — measure existing yoke CL-to-weld before ordering; a mismatch changes effective shaft lengthSteel construction; suitable for all standard KIA production drivetrain applicationsKIA AWD driveshaft tubes are often galvanized internally at the factory — do not weld without grinding back the zinc coating at least 0.750″ from the weld zone on both tube and yoke. Zinc contamination causes weld porosity that will fail under cyclic loading. This weld yoke requires a matching OE-spec U-joint for this KIA application series.

The 100-28-17 fits a 4.000″ tube at 0.095″ wall, a specification common on Class 4-6 commercial and heavier pickup applications where the larger tube diameter provides the critical speed rating while the 0.095″ wall keeps weight reasonable. The 3.810″ butt diameter requires a clean, round tube bore for proper concentricity. The 2.969″ centerline-to-weld is compact for a 4″ tube assembly, keeping the overall driveshaft length controlled. Pair with an SPL90 or SPL100 U-joint — do not use SPL55 or lighter series joints at this tube diameter and torque level.

The 4.750″ butt diameter steps down from the 4.961″ OD, creating an inside shoulder inside the tube bore that the weld yoke seats against for concentricity during the tacking process. The 3.700″ centerline-to-weld is more compact than the 170-28-27 variant, positioning the weld closer to the U-joint and reducing the overall assembly length — an advantage when package clearance is tight.Important welding note: the 0.118″ wall is significantly thinner than the 0.197″ wall on the 170-28-27. Reduce heat input and increase travel speed accordingly to avoid burn-through or excessive distortion at the weld toe. Post-weld balance is mandatory on all heavy-commercial weld yoke assemblies at this tube size; a static imbalance of even 0.5 oz-inch at these diameters produces significant vibration at 1,800 RPM driveshaft speed.

However, the longer moment arm between weld and U-joint centerline also increases the bending stress on the yoke body during peak torque events — this is acceptable within the SPL170 rating but should be considered if the vehicle operates at or near the rated torque limit continuously.

This weld yoke is engineered for Class 7-8 trucks, heavy construction equipment, and vocational vehicles where shaft torque capacity exceeds what SPL90/100 or 1710/1810 components can safely carry.The 250-28-17 is a Spicer-branded SPL250-series weld yoke sized for 5.197″x0.236″ tube — a large-diameter, thick-wall specification used on heavy commercial driveshafts. The 4.724″ butt diameter requires precise tube preparation: the tube end must be cut square to within 0.005″ total runout, and the butt face must be cleaned of mill scale before MIG welding. The 4.094″ centerline-to-weld dimension positions the weld joint well back from the U-joint working area, providing sufficient heat-affected zone clearance that post-weld distortion does not influence U-joint clearance. Weld using an E70S-6 wire or equivalent and maintain inter-pass temperature below 350 degrees F to avoid heat treating the SPL250 joint trunnion inadvertently. Complete the assembly with an SPL250 U-joint — no lighter joint is rated for this tube diameter.

The 2-28-2595 is a 1310 series weld yoke for 2.500-inch OD tube with 0.095-inch wall, with a butt diameter of listed inch and a CJ-to-weld distance of 1.688 inch. This is a direct-application part — dimensioned for a specific combination of series rating and key dimension, with no need for secondary machining in standard installations.Part DimensionsSpecificationValueSeries1310Tube OD x Wall2.500X0.095CJ to Weld1.688MaterialSTEELBrandUDSPart Number2-28-2595Why Series Matching Is Non-NegotiableSeries 1310 sets the cross cap diameter, load rating, and operating angle specification for every component in that driveshaft section. Substituting a weld tube yoke from a different series introduces dimensional mismatches at the u-joint ears that prevent proper cap seating — leading to rapid wear, seal failure, and potential separation. The 2-28-2595 was designed for 1310 series, so the geometry matches exactly.Before You InstallConfirm tube OD 2.500 x wall 0.095, butt dia see specs is correct for your vehicleCheck output shaft or spline for wear, scoring, or fretting before reinstallingPack u-joint cross caps with chassis grease if your application has a grease fittingTorque retaining hardware to spec — over-tightening snap ring grooves causes yoke crackingRotate by hand before vehicle movement to check for binding or clunkingThe 2-28-2595 is a catalog item at Universal Driveshafts — available for fast dispatch.

The 4-28-307-SU is the weld tube yoke position in that load chain for 1550 series applications, providing tube OD 3.500×0.095 x wall listed, butt dia 3.321 with forged construction and production-controlled tolerances.Specification DataSpecificationValueSeries1550Tube OD x Wall3.500×0.095Butt Dia3.321CJ to Weld2.188MaterialSTEELBrandUDSPart Number4-28-307-SUFailure Modes and PreventionA worn weld tube yoke typically presents as vibration at certain speed ranges, a clunk on throttle engagement, or visible play when you grab the driveshaft near the yoke and rock it. Left unaddressed, it accelerates u-joint wear, can score the output shaft seal contact area, and in severe cases causes shaft separation. Replacing the 4-28-307-SU as part of a scheduled drivetrain refresh — rather than waiting for failure — is the lower-cost strategy in the long run.Fitment ChecklistTube od 3.500×0.095 x wall listed, butt dia 3.321 — verified against this part before orderingSeries 1550 u-joint cross in service or on order for this shaft endMating component (output shaft / companion flange) in serviceable conditionRetaining hardware (snap rings, strap bolts, or flange bolts as applicable) renewed if previously heat-cycledShaft balance acceptable after installation — road test confirms thisOrder the 4-28-307-SU from Universal Driveshafts today.
