2826-101 Weld Tube Yoke 1751 Series, Fits: 1.000 x 0.120 , Butt Dia: 0.967 Inch Front Mercedes Driveshaft

When diagnosing driveline issues, the 2826-101 weld yoke is a critical component for the Mercedes Front driveshaft. This yoke features a 1751 Series design, with a butt diameter of 0.967 inches and a tube diameter wall of 1.000 x 0.120 inches. If you notice vibrations or clunking noises during acceleration, a worn or damaged yoke can often be the culprit. Inspecting the yoke for cracks or excessive wear is essential.

The centerline to weld distance of 1.675 inches is also a key measurement. If this distance is incorrect, it can lead to improper alignment, causing further driveline issues. The steel construction of the 2826-101 ensures it can handle the stresses of performance applications while maintaining integrity under load.

Here are some important installation tips:

• Check spline engagement depth before installation.
• Ensure proper phasing with the opposite yoke.
• Never force spline entry; it can lead to damage.
• Verify that the butt diameter matches the mating components.
• Inspect the weld area for any signs of fatigue or failure.

Using the 2826-101 yoke will restore proper function to your driveline, eliminating those troublesome vibrations and ensuring a smooth ride. Remember, proper fitment and installation are key to longevity and performance.
