3-82-181 – Yoke Shafts – 1350 Series – 1.500″ Splines dia – 16 Spline

The 3-82-181 yoke shaft is an integrated assembly — splined shaft on one end, u-joint yoke on the other. It splines onto the output shaft and carries the u-joint cross simultaneously, in one part. For 1350 series applications, both the spline specification and the u-joint series have to be correct. One wrong dimension on either end and the part doesn't work.

3-82-181 Yoke Shaft — 1350 Series Spline & CL Specs

The 1350 series covers 3/4-ton trucks — F-250, Ram 2500, Dana 44/60 axles, performance 4x4. The 3-82-181 yoke shaft specs: 1.500"" x 16 spline | 2.500" spline length | 6.812" CL-to-end. Spline length determines engagement depth — short engagement under high torque loads damages the output shaft, not just the yoke shaft. CL-to-end positions the u-joint cross relative to the output shaft face; this affects clearance on tight installations.

Verify both ends of the 3-82-181 yoke shaft before installing: spline count against the output shaft, and series cross size against the driveshaft u-joint. If either is wrong, the part has to come back out. Measure once, order correctly.
