When installing the 3502-42 Cv Flange Yoke, ensure you check the critical dimensions first. This yoke is designed for 1350 Series applications and features a ball stud diameter of 0.5″ and a bolt circle diameter of 4.25″. The 3502-42 is compatible with Ford CV Flange setups, specifically utilizing 12mm threaded holes and a square bolt pattern.
Before you slide this yoke onto the driveshaft, verify the spline engagement depth. A common oversight is mismatching the spline count, especially when working with different series. This yoke connects directly to the transmission or differential, so proper phasing with the opposite yoke is essential to prevent vibration issues. The pilot diameter measures 2.68″, and the C L to face is 1.625″—both important for ensuring a snug fit.
- Check the spline count and ensure it matches your application.
- Verify the pilot diameter for compatibility with your driveshaft.
- Inspect the bolt holes for proper alignment before tightening.
- Always torque fasteners to the manufacturer’s specifications to avoid failure.
By following these installation tips, you can ensure a smooth and effective setup with the 3502-42 Cv Flange Yoke. Remember, proper installation is key to maintaining driveline integrity and performance.
